BACKGROUND

CRISPRs (Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats) are loci found in the genomes of bacteria and archaea that contain multiple short direct repeats. CRISPR RNAs (crRNAs) associate with CRISPR-associated (Cas) effector proteins to form CRISPR-Cas systems that recognize foreign nucleic acids. CRISPRs systems are part of the adaptive immune system of bacteria and archaea, protecting them against invading nucleic acids, such as viruses, by cleaving the foreign DNA in a sequence-dependent manner. Immunity is acquired by integrating of short fragments of the invading DNA, known as spacers, between two adjacent repeats at the proximal end of a CRISPR locus. The CRISPR arrays are transcribed during subsequent encounters with invasive nucleic acids and are processed into small interfering CRISPR RNAs (crRNAs) of approximately 40 nt in length, which associate with the trans-activating CRISPR RNA (tracrRNA) to guide the CRISPR associated nuclease to the invasive nucleic acid. The CRISPR/Cas9 effector complex cleaves homologous double-stranded DNA sequences known as protospacers in the invading DNA. A prerequisite for cleavage is the presence of a conserved protospacer-adjacent motif (PAM) downstream of the target DNA, which, for Cas9, usually has the sequence 5′-NGG-3′ but less frequently NAG. Specificity is provided by a “seed sequence” in the crRNA which is located approximately 12 bases upstream of the PAM, which must be capable of hybridizing with the target sequence. Cpf1, a type V Cas effector protein, acts in a similar manner to Cas9, but Cpf1 does not require a tracrRNA.

CRISPR-Cas systems are dived into two classes: Class 1 CRISPR systems, subdivided into types I, III, and IV, and Class 1 systems utilize multiple Cas proteins with a crRNA to form a complex; and Class 2 CRISPR systems, subdivided into types II and V, utilize a single Cas protein with a crRNA to form a complex capable of sequence specific genome modification.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE FIGURES

FIG. 1 shows a multiple sequence alignment of CRISPR-associated transposase protein sequences SEQ ID NOs: 228-232.

FIG. 2 shows the multiple sequence alignment of three CRISPR spacer sequences and five bacterial phage sequences. The three spacers (spacer-1: SEQ ID NO: 2004, spacer-2: SEQ ID NO: 2005, spacer-3: SEQ ID NO: 2006) are from CRISPR regions associated with transposases in protein cluster 1. The five phage sequences (KJ920400.1: SEQ ID NO: 2007, HE614281.1: SEQ ID NO: 2008, HE614282.1: SEQ ID NO: 2009, KJ024807.1: SEQ ID NO: 2010, NC 029008.1: SEQ ID NO: 2011) are blast search hits of spacer sequences against datasets of phage and viral genomic sequences. The conserved “TCA” motif in the rectangle box is a putative 5′-PAM for the transposases.

FIG. 3 shows the predicted stem-loop secondary structure for the CRISPR repeat sequence 1 (SEQ ID NO: 2012) and the CRISPR repeat sequence 2 (SEQ ID NO: 2013) from the transposase-associated CRISPR region (SEQ ID NO: 662). The structure of the repeat sequences suggests that the repeat sequence alone is sufficient to form an effective guide RNA.

FIG. 4 shows a diagram of the predicted protein domain structure of the CRISPR-associated transposase of SEQ ID NO: 136 (DNA: SEQ ID NO: 304). Seven Puf (Pumilio-family RNA binding repeat) domains are predicted and labeled as Puf-1 to Puf-7. The protein is also predicted to contain an IS605_ORFB domain (amino acids 221-336), and a Zn_Ribbon domain (amino acids 350-416). The conserved RuvC catalytic sites in the split RuvC I, II, and III regions are indicated by D233, E354, and D408, respectively.

FIG. 5 shows the amino acid sequence of the CRISPR-associated transposase of SEQ ID NO: 136 with domain annotations: seven Puf domains Puf-1 to Puf-7 are underlined and labeled; two pfam domains, IS605_ORFB and Zn_Ribbon region, are enclosed by brackets [ ] and [[ ]] respectively; and the conserved RuvC catalytic sites D233, E354, and D408 are pointed out by arrows.

FIG. 6 shows a multiple sequence alignment of five CRISPR repeat sequences (SEQ ID NOs: 2012-2016) from the CRISPR region (SEQ ID NO: 662) associated with the CRISPR-associated transposase of SEQ ID NO: 136 (DNA: SEQ ID NO: 304). The conserved nucleotides that are consistent with the consensus Puf binding motif (5′-UGUANAUA-3′) are underlined and shown in bold.

FIG. 7 shows a diagram of an Escherichia coli based blue-white selection assay to screen for nuclease activity. A bacterial expression plasmid generated using a pUC19 (pUC) vector with a kanamycin (kan) selection marker was used to clone a region of interest (ROI) encoding a putative transposase and associated guide-RNA. A reporter plasmid was also generated that contained a target sequence encoding a spacer from the CRISPR region, which is flanked by variable sequence (indicated by NNNspacerNNN), a lacZ reporter gene, a chloramphenicol selection cassette (chlor), and a low-copy number bacterial promoter (p15a). The two plasmids were co-transformed into E. coli, and the presence of white colonies indicates cutting by the transposase. Sequence analysis of plasmid recovered from white colonies is used to confirm the nuclease activity.

FIG. 8 shows a diagram of Mycobacterium cutting assay to validate nuclease activity of CRISPR-associated transposases. The same expression and reporter plasmids used for the E. coli blue-white selection of FIG. 7 are used to co-transform Mycobacterium. Due to endogenous plasmid repair in Mycobacterium, repair of double-strand breaks in the LacZ reporter plasmid results in insertions and deletions indels at the repair site. The presence of indels in the LacZ vector is indicative of nuclease activity. PCR and/or sequencing primers designed to the spacer cassette are used to detect indels in recovered reporter plasmids.

FIG. 9 shows a diagram of an in vitro cutting assay. The region comprising the CRISPR-associated transposase is cloned into an expression vector and the transposase is expressed in E. coli and the purified protein is incubated in vitro with the DNA target for cutting (NNNspacerNNN). The resulting DNA is (a) analyzed for fragment length by gel electrophoresis, and (b) by sequence analysis.

FIG. 10 shows a diagram of a cutting assay for eukaryotic cells. The CRISPR-associated transposase and associated guide RNA are cloned into a vector to facilitate expression in a eukaryotic cell. The expression vectors, double strand oligo (ds oligo), and (optionally) plasmid DNA containing target sequence are co-transformed into a eukaryotic cell. The nuclease activity on either (a) chromosomal DNA, or (b) introduced plasmid template is evaluated with standard molecular biology assays (PCR (Taqman® (TM)), restriction fragment size analysis, or sequencing).

FIG. 11 shows a diagram of prokaryotic blue-white selection assay design for the validation of CRISPR-associated transposase activity. The top row shows diagrams of the vectors used for CRISPR-associated transposase (RGEN) expression. The bottom row shows diagrams of the vectors containing the putative target sequence (NNNspacerNNNspacerNNN) and the LacZ marker. The left top and bottom pair are the control lacking the target sequence. The middle top and bottom pair are the control lacking the CRISPR-associated transposase (RGEN). The right top and bottom pair are the test assay with the respective vectors containing the CRISPR-associated transposase (RGEN) and the target sequence.

FIG. 12 shows a diagram of the Guide RNA binding assay using Alpha Screen (Perkin Elmer) technology. This assay system uses a donor and acceptor bead that when brought into close proximity emits a detectable fluorescent signal. The putative guide RNAs (gRNA) are made using in vitro transcription. These guide RNA sequences are linked to the flank sequences (Flank1: SEQ ID NO: 3380; Flank2: SEQ ID NO: 3381) via the linker sequence (SEQ ID NO: 3382). The nucleotide sequence (Flank2) binds to an oligo with an Alpha Streptavidin donor bead attached. A CRISPR-associated transposase is expressed in E. coli with a His-tag. This His-tag (represented in the figure as 6-His_tag) serves as the binding site for the Alpha acceptor bead. When CRISPR-associated transposase binds to the putative guide RNA a detectable fluorescent signal is produced.

Any references cited herein are incorporated by reference in their entireties.

As used herein, the singular form “a,” “an,” and “the” include plural references unless the context clearly dictates otherwise. For example, the term “a compound” or “at least one compound” may include a plurality of compounds, including mixtures thereof. Thus, for example, reference to “plant,” “the plant,” or “a plant” also includes a plurality of plants; also, depending on the context, use of the term “plant” can also include genetically similar or identical progeny of that plant; use of the term “a nucleic acid” optionally includes, as a practical matter, many copies of that nucleic acid molecule.

As used herein, the term “about” indicates that a value includes the inherent variation of error for the method being employed to determine a value, or the variation that exists among experiments.

As used herein, the terms “CRISPR-associated enzyme” refers to genome modification enzymes that associated in its native context (e.g., in a bacterial genome) with a CRISPR locus. In some embodiments, the CRISPR-associated enzymes are CRISPR-associated transposases.

As used herein, “encoding” refers either to a polynucleotide (DNA or RNA) encoding for the amino acids of a polypeptide or a DNA encoding for the nucleotides of an RNA. As used herein, “coding sequence” and “coding region” are used interchangeably and refer to a polynucleotide that encodes a polypeptide. The boundaries of a coding region are generally determined by a translation start codon at its 5′ end and a translation stop codon at its 3′ end.

As used herein, an “endogenous” molecule is one that is normally present in a particular cell at a particular developmental stage under particular environmental conditions.

As used herein, an “expression cassette” refers to a polynucleotide sequence which may or may not be operably linked to one or more expression elements such as an enhancer, a promoter, a leader, an intron, a 5′ untranslated region (UTR), a 3′ UTR, or a transcription termination sequence. In some embodiments, an expression cassette comprises at least a first polynucleotide sequence capable of initiating transcription of an operably linked second polynucleotide sequence and optionally a transcription termination sequence operably linked to the second polynucleotide sequence.

As used herein, the term “gene” or “genic” means a locatable region of genomic sequence corresponding to a unit of inheritance. A gene may include regulatory regions, such as promoters, enhancers, 5′-untranslated regions, intron regions, exon regions, 3′-untranslated regions, transcribed regions, and other functional sequence regions that may exist as native genes or transgenes in a plant or a mammalian genome. Depending upon the circumstances, the term “target gene” can refer to the full-length nucleotide sequence of a gene targeted for binding and/or cleavage or the nucleotide sequence of a portion of a gene targeted for binding and/or cleavage. A target gene can be an endogenous gene or a transgene.

As used herein, the term “genomic locus” refers to a specific location on a chromosome. A genomic locus may comprise a single nucleotide, a few nucleotides, a large number of nucleotides, a gene, a portion of a gene, a gene cluster, a multigene family or array of genes in a genomic region.

As used herein, the term “homologous recombination” refers to the exchange of nucleotide sequences at a conserved region shared by two genomic loci or by a donor DNA and a target site. Homologous recombination includes symmetric homologous recombination and asymmetric homologous recombination. Asymmetric homologous recombination may also be referred to as unequal recombination.

As used herein, the term “identity” when used in relation to nucleic acids, describes the degree of similarity between two or more nucleotide sequences. The percentage of “sequence identity” between two sequences can be determined by comparing two optimally aligned sequences over a comparison window, such that the portion of the sequence in the comparison window may comprise additions or deletions (gaps) as compared to the reference sequence (which does not comprise additions or deletions) for optimal alignment of the two sequences. The percentage is calculated by determining the number of positions at which the identical nucleic acid base or amino acid residue occurs in both sequences to yield the number of matched positions, dividing the number of matched positions by the total number of positions in the window of comparison, and multiplying the result by 100 to yield the percentage of sequence identity. A sequence that is identical at every position in comparison to a reference sequence is said to be identical to the reference sequence and vice-versa. An alignment of two or more sequences may be performed using any suitable computer program. For example, a widely used and accepted computer program for performing sequence alignments is CLUSTALW v1.6 (Thompson, et al. (1994) Nucl. Acids Res., 22: 4673-4680).

As used herein, a “non-coding sequence” can encode a functional RNA (e.g. transfer RNA, ribosomal RNA, microRNA, Piwi-interacting RNA), a promoter, an intron, an untranslated region of an mRNA (e.g., a 5′ untranslated region or a 3′ untranslated region), a pseudogene, a repeat sequence, or a transposable element. Non-coding sequences do not encode functional polypeptides.

As used herein, the terms “nucleic acid,” “polynucleotide,” and “oligonucleotide are used interchangeably and refer to deoxyribonuclotides (DNA), ribonucleotides (RNA), and functional analogues thereof, such as complementary DNA (cDNA) in linear or circular conformation.

Uracil (U) replaces thymine in RNA molecules. Analogues of the natural nucleotide bases, as well as nucleotide bases that are modified in the base, sugar, and/or phosphate moieties are also provided herein. The symbol “N” can be used to represent any nucleotide base (e.g., A, G, C, T, or U). As used herein, “complementary” in reference to a nucleic acid molecule or nucleotide bases refers to A being complementary to T (or U), and G being complementary to C. Two complementary nucleic acid molecules are capable of hybridizing with each other under appropriate conditions. In an aspect of the present disclosure, two nucleic acid sequences are homologous if they have at least 70%, at least 75%, at least 80%, at least 85%, at least 90%, at least 95%, at least 96%, at least 97%, at least 98%, at least 99% or 100% sequence identity with each other.

As used herein, “operably linked” means that the operably linked nucleic acid sequences exhibit their desired function. For example, in an aspect of this disclosure, a provided DNA promoter sequence can initiate transcription of an operably linked DNA sequence into RNA. A nucleic acid sequence provided herein can be upstream or downstream of a physically or operably linked nucleic acid sequence. In an aspect, a first nucleic acid molecule provided herein is both physically linked and operably linked to a second nucleic acid molecule provided herein. In another aspect, a first nucleic acid molecule provided herein is neither physically linked nor operably linked to a second nucleic acid molecule provided herein.

Aspects of this disclosure include compositions including oligonucleotides having a length of 18-25 nucleotides (e. g., 18-mers, 19-mers, 20-mers, 21-mers, 22-mers, 23-mers, 24-mers, or 25-mers), or medium-length polynucleotides having a length of 26 or more nucleotides (e. g., polynucleotides of 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46, 47, 48, 49, 50, 51, 52, 53, 54, 55, 56, 57, 58, 59, 60, about 65, about 70, about 75, about 80, about 85, about 90, about 95, about 100, about 110, about 120, about 130, about 140, about 150, about 160, about 170, about 180, about 190, about 200, about 210, about 220, about 230, about 240, about 250, about 260, about 270, about 280, about 290, or about 300 nucleotides), or long polynucleotides having a length greater than about 300 nucleotides (e. g., polynucleotides of between about 300 to about 400 nucleotides, between about 400 to about 500 nucleotides, between about 500 to about 600 nucleotides, between about 600 to about 700 nucleotides, between about 700 to about 800 nucleotides, between about 800 to about 900 nucleotides, between about 900 to about 1000 nucleotides, between about 300 to about 500 nucleotides, between about 300 to about 600 nucleotides, between about 300 to about 700 nucleotides, between about 300 to about 800 nucleotides, between about 300 to about 900 nucleotides, or about 1000 nucleotides in length, or even greater than about 1000 nucleotides in length, for example up to the entire length of a target gene including coding or non-coding or both coding and non-coding portions of the target gene). Where a polynucleotide is double-stranded, its length can be similarly described in terms of base pairs.

As used herein, terms “polypeptide”, “peptide” and “protein” are used interchangeably to refer to a polymer of amino acid residues. The term also applies to amino acid polymers in which one or more amino acids are chemical analogues or modified derivatives of a corresponding naturally-occurring amino acids.

As used herein, “protoplast” refers to a plant cell that has had its protective cell wall completely or partially removed using, for example, mechanical or enzymatic means resulting in an intact biochemical competent unit of living plant that can reform their cell wall, proliferate and regenerate grow into a whole plant under proper growing conditions.

As used herein, “promoter” refers to a nucleic acid sequence located upstream or 5′ to a translational start codon of an open reading frame (or protein-coding region) of a gene and that is involved in recognition and binding of RNA polymerase I, II, or III and other proteins (trans-acting transcription factors) to initiate transcription. In some embodiments described herein, the promoter is a plant promoter. A “plant promoter” is a native or non-native promoter that is functional in plant cells. Constitutive promoters are functional in most or all tissues of a plant throughout plant development. Tissue-, organ- or cell-specific promoters are expressed only or predominantly in a particular tissue, organ, or cell type, respectively. Rather than being expressed “specifically” in a given tissue, plant part, or cell type, a promoter may display “enhanced” expression, i.e., a higher level of expression, in one cell type, tissue, or plant part of the plant compared to other parts of the plant. Temporally regulated promoters are functional only or predominantly during certain periods of plant development or at certain times of day, as in the case of genes associated with circadian rhythm, for example. Inducible promoters selectively express an operably linked DNA sequence in response to the presence of an endogenous or exogenous stimulus, for example by chemical compounds (chemical inducers) or in response to environmental, hormonal, chemical, and/or developmental signals. Inducible or regulated promoters include, for example, promoters regulated by light, heat, stress, flooding or drought, phytohormones, wounding, or chemicals such as ethanol, jasmonate, salicylic acid, or safeners. In an aspect, a promotor provided herein is a constitutive promoter. In another aspect, a promoter provided herein is a regulatable promoter. In an aspect, a promoter provided herein is located within a sequence of interest. In another aspect, a promoter provided herein is not located within a sequence of interest. A number of promoters that are active in plant cells have been described in the literature. Such promoters would include but are not limited to the nopaline synthase (NOS) (Ebert et al., 1987) and octopine synthase (OCS) promoters that are carried on Ti plasmids of Agrobacterium tumefaciens, the caulimovirus promoters such as the cauliflower mosaic virus (CaMV) 19S (Lawton et al., Plant Molecular Biology (1987) 9: 315-324) and 35S promoters (Odell et al., Nature (1985) 313: 810-812), the Figwort mosaic virus (FMV) 35S promoter (U.S. Pat. Nos. 6,051,753; 5,378,619), and the enhanced CaMV35S promoter (e35S). Additional promoters that can find use are the sucrose synthase promoter (Yang and Russell, Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, USA (1990) 87: 4144-4148), the R gene complex promoter (Chandler et al., Plant Cell (1989) 1: 1175-1183), and the chlorophyll a/b binding protein gene promoter, PC1SV (U.S. Pat. No. 5,850,019), and AGRtu.nos (GenBank Accession V00087; Depicker et al., Journal of Molecular and Applied Genetics (1982) 1: 561-573; Bevan et al., 1983) promoters. A variety of other plant gene promoters that are regulated in response to environmental, hormonal, chemical, and/or developmental signals, also can be used for expression of heterologous genes in plant cells, including, for instance, promoters regulated by (1) heat (Callis et al., Plant Physiology, (1988) 88: 965-968), (2) light (e.g., pea RbcS-3A promoter, Kuhlemeier et al., Plant Cell, (1989) 1: 471-478; maize RbcS promoter, Schaffner et al., Plant Cell (1991) 3: 997-1012); (3) hormones, such as abscisic acid (Marcotte et al., Plant Cell, (1989) 1: 969-976), (4) wounding (e.g., Siebertz et al., Plant Cell, (1989) 961-968); or other signals or chemicals. Tissue specific promoters are also known. In some embodiments, a promoter is capable of causing sufficient expression to result in the production of an effective amount of the gene product of interest.

In some embodiments, promoter hybrids can be constructed to enhance transcriptional activity (U.S. Pat. No. 5,106,739). In some embodiments, promoter hybrids can be constructed to combine a desired transcriptional activity, transcriptional inducibility, transcriptional tissue specificity, and/or transcriptional developmental specificity. Promoters that function in plants include but are not limited to promoters that are inducible, viral, synthetic, constitutive, temporally regulated, spatially regulated, and spatio-temporally regulated. Other promoters that are tissue-enhanced, tissue-specific, or developmentally regulated are also known in the art and envisioned to have utility in the practice of this disclosure. Promoters used in the provided nucleic acid molecules and transformation vectors of the present disclosure can be modified, if desired, to affect their control characteristics.

As used herein, the term “guide RNA” refers to any polynucleotide sequence having sufficient complementarity with a target nucleic acid sequence to hybridize with the target nucleic acid sequence and direct sequence-specific binding of a CRISPR-associated transposase to the target nucleic acid sequence. In some embodiments, the degree of complementarity, when optimally aligned using a suitable alignment algorithm, is about or more than about 50%, 60%, 75%, 80%, 85%, 90%, 91%, 92%, 93%, 94%, 95%, 96%, 97%, 98%, 99%, or more.

In some embodiments the mature crRNA comprises a stem loop or an optimized stem loop structure in the direct repeat sequence, wherein the stem loop or optimized stem loop structure is important for cleavage activity. In certain embodiments, the mature crRNA comprises a single stem loop. In certain embodiments, the direct repeat sequence comprises a single stem loop. In certain embodiments, the cleavage activity of the nucleic acid-targeting system is modified by introducing mutations that affect the stem loop RNA duplex structure. In some embodiments, mutations which maintain the RNA duplex of the stem loop may be introduced, whereby the cleavage activity of the nucleic acid-targeting system is maintained. In other embodiments, mutations which disrupt the RNA duplex structure of the stem loop may be introduced, whereby the cleavage activity of the nucleic acid-targeting system is completely abolished.

The ability of a guide RNA sequence to direct sequence-specific binding of a nucleic acid-targeting system to a target nucleic acid sequence may be assessed by any suitable assay. For example, the components of a nucleic acid-targeting system sufficient to form a nucleic acid-targeting complex, including the CRISPR-associated transposase and guide sequence to be tested, may be provided to a host cell having the corresponding target nucleic acid sequence, such as by transfection with vectors encoding the components of the nucleic acid-targeting complex, followed by an assessment of preferential targeting (e.g., cleavage) within the target nucleic acid sequence. Similarly, cleavage of a target nucleic acid sequence may be evaluated in vitro by providing the target nucleic acid sequence, components of a nucleic acid-targeting system, including the CRISPR-associated transposase and/or guide sequence to be tested and a control guide sequence different from the test guide sequence, and comparing binding or rate of cleavage at the target sequence between the test and control guide sequence reactions. Other assays are possible, and will occur to those skilled in the art. A guide sequence, and hence a nucleic acid-targeting guide RNA may be selected to target any target nucleic acid sequence. The target sequence may be DNA. The target sequence may be any RNA sequence. In some embodiments, the target sequence may be a sequence within a RNA molecule selected from the group consisting of messenger RNA (mRNA), pre-mRNA, ribosomal RNA (rRNA), transfer RNA (tRNA), micro-RNA (miRNA), small interfering RNA (siRNA), small nuclear RNA (snRNA), small nucleolar RNA (snoRNA), double stranded RNA (dsRNA), non coding RNA (ncRNA), long non-coding RNA (lncRNA), and small cytoplasmatic RNA (scRNA).

In some embodiments, the target sequence may be a sequence within a RNA molecule selected from the group consisting of ncRNA, and lncRNA. In some embodiments, the target sequence may be a sequence within an mRNA molecule or a pre-mRNA molecule.

As used herein, the term “tracrRNA” includes any polynucleotide sequence that has sufficient complementarity with a crRNA sequence to hybridize. In some embodiments, the tracrRNA is not required for cleavage activity of a nucleic acid-targeting system. In other embodiments, the tracrRNA is required for cleavage activity of a nucleic acid-targeting system.

In some embodiments, one of more components of a nucleic acid-targeting system disclosed herein are expressed or delivered in a vector. As used herein, the term “vector” refers to a nucleic acid molecule capable of transporting another nucleic acid to which it has been linked. Vectors include, but are not limited to, nucleic acid molecules that are single-stranded, double-stranded, or partially double-stranded; nucleic acid molecules that comprise one or more free ends, no free ends (e.g., circular); nucleic acid molecules that comprise DNA, RNA, or both; and other varieties of polynucleotides known in the art. One type of vector is a “plasmid”, which refers to a circular double stranded DNA loop into which additional DNA segments can be inserted, such as by standard molecular cloning techniques. Another type of vector is an Agrobacterium. Another type of vector is a viral vector, wherein virally-derived DNA or RNA sequences are present in the vector for packaging into a virus (e.g., retroviruses, replication defective retroviruses, Tobacco mosaic virus (TMV), Potato virus X (PVX) and Cowpea mosaic virus (CPMV), tobamovirus, Gemini viruses, adenoviruses, replication defective adenoviruses, and adeno-associated viruses). Viral vectors also include polynucleotides carried by a virus for transfection into a host cell. In some embodiments, a viral vector may be delivered to a plant using Agrobacterium. Certain vectors are capable of autonomous replication in a host cell into which they are introduced. Other vectors are integrated into the genome of a host cell upon introduction into the host cell, and thereby are replicated along with the host genome. Moreover, certain vectors are capable of directing the expression of genes to which they are operatively-linked. Such vectors are referred to herein as “expression vectors”. Vectors for and that result in expression in a eukaryotic cell can be referred to herein as “eukaryotic expression vectors.” Common expression vectors of utility in recombinant DNA techniques are often in the form of plasmids. It will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that the design of the expression vector can depend on such factors as the choice of the host cell to be transformed, the level of expression desired, etc. A vector can be introduced into host cells to thereby produce transcripts, proteins, or peptides, including fusion proteins or peptides, encoded by nucleic acids as described herein (e.g., clustered regularly interspersed short palindromic repeats (CRISPR) transcripts, proteins, enzymes, mutant forms thereof, fusion proteins thereof, etc.).

Recombinant expression vectors can comprise a nucleic acid of the disclosure in a form suitable for expression of the nucleic acid in a host cell, which means that the recombinant expression vectors include one or more regulatory elements, which may be selected on the basis of the host cells to be used for expression, that is operatively-linked to the nucleic acid sequence to be expressed.

As used herein, the terms “template nucleic acid” or “donor polynucleotide” may be used interchangeably and refer to a nucleic acid sequence which can be used in conjunction with a CRISPR-associated transposase comprising an amino acid sequence having at least 85%, at least 90%, at least 91%, at least 92%, at least 93%, at least 94%, at least 95%, at least 96%, at least 97%, at least 98%, at least 99%, or 100% homology to a sequence selected from the group consisting of SEQ ID NOs: 124-246 and 275-287 or an ortholog or homolog thereof to alter the structure of a target sequence. In some embodiments, the template nucleic acid or donor polynucleotide comprises one or more, two or more, three or more, four or more, five or more transgenes. In an embodiment, the target sequence is modified to have some or all of the sequence of the template nucleic acid, typically at or near cleavage site(s). In an embodiment, the template nucleic acid is single stranded. In an alternate embodiment, the template nucleic acid is double stranded.

In certain embodiments, the template nucleic acid can include sequence which results in an alteration in the coding sequence of a translated sequence, e.g., one which results in the substitution of one amino acid for another in a protein product, e.g., transforming a mutant allele into a wild type allele, transforming a wild type allele into a mutant allele, and/or introducing a stop codon, insertion of an amino acid residue, deletion of an amino acid residue, or a nonsense mutation. In certain embodiments, the template nucleic acid can include sequence which results in an alteration in a non-coding sequence, e.g., an alteration in an exon or in a 5′ or 3′ non-translated or non-transcribed region. Such alterations include an alteration in a regulatory element, e.g., a promoter, enhancer, and an alteration in a cis-acting or trans-acting control element.

A template nucleic acid having homology with a target sequence in a target gene may be used to alter the structure of a target gene. The template sequence may be used to alter an unwanted structure, e.g., an unwanted or mutant nucleotide. The template nucleic acid may include sequence which, when integrated, results in: decreasing the activity of a positive regulatory element; increasing the activity of a positive regulatory element; decreasing the activity of a negative regulatory element; increasing the activity of a negative regulatory element; decreasing the expression of a gene; increasing the expression of a gene; increasing resistance to a herbicide; increasing resistance to a disease; increasing resistance to a insect or nematode pest; increasing resistance to an abiotic stress (e.g., drought, nitrogen deficiency); increasing resistance to viral entry; correcting a mutation or altering an unwanted amino acid residue conferring, increasing, abolishing or decreasing a biological property of a gene product, e.g., increasing the enzymatic activity of an enzyme, or increasing the ability of a gene product to interact with another molecule.

In some embodiments, a template nucleic acid may include sequence which results in: a change in sequence of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12 or more nucleotides of the target sequence. In an embodiment, the template nucleic acid may be 20+/−10, 30+/−10, 40+/−10, 50+/−10, 60+/−10, 70+/−10, 80+/−10, 90+/−10, 100+/−10, 110+/−10, 120+/−10, 130+/−10, 140+/−10, 150+/−10, 160+/−10, 170+/−10, 180+/−10, 190+/−10, 200+/−10, 210+/−10, of 220+/−10 nucleotides in length.

In an embodiment, the template nucleic acid is 10 to 1,000, 20 to 900, 30 to 800, 40 to 700, 50 to 600, 50 to 500, 50 to 400, 50 to 300, 50 to 200, or 50 to 100 nucleotides in length.

In some embodiments, a donor nucleic acid comprises the following components: [5′ homology arm]-[sequence of interest]-[3′ homology arm]. The homology arms provide for recombination into the chromosome. In some embodiments, the sequence of interest replaces an undesired element, e.g., a mutation or signature, with the sequence of interest. In some embodiments, the sequence of interest comprises one or more, two or more, three or more, four or more, or five or more transgenes. In an embodiment, the homology arms flank the most distal cleavage sites. In an embodiment, the 3′ end of the 5′ homology arm is the position next to the 5′ end of the sequence of interest. In an embodiment, the 5′ homology arm can extend at least 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 100, 200, 300, 400, 500, 600, 700, 800, 900, 1000, 1500, or 2000 nucleotides 5′ from the 5′ end of the sequence of interest. In an embodiment, the 5′ end of the 3′ homology arm is the position next to the 3′ end of the sequence of interest. In an embodiment, the 3′ homology arm can extend at least 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 100, 200, 300, 400, 500, 600, 700, 800, 900, 1000, 1500, or 2000 nucleotides 3′ from the 3′ end of the sequence of interest.

In certain embodiments, one or both homology arms may be shortened to avoid including certain sequence repeat elements. For example, a 5′ homology arm may be shortened to avoid a sequence repeat element. In other embodiments, a 3′ homology arm may be shortened to avoid a sequence repeat element. In some embodiments, both the 5′ and the 3′ homology arms may be shortened to avoid including certain sequence repeat elements.

In certain embodiments, a donor nucleic acid may designed for use as a single-stranded oligonucleotide. When using a single-stranded oligonucleotide, 5′ and 3′ homology arms may range up to about 200 bases in length, e.g., at least 25, 50, 75, 100, 125, 150, 175, or 200 bases in length.

In certain embodiments, the components of the nucleic acid-targeting system may further comprise at least one or more nuclear localization signal (NLS), nuclear export signal (NES), functional domain, flexible linker, mutation, deletion, alteration or truncation. The one or more of the NLS, the NES or the functional domain may be conditionally activated or inactivated.

In some embodiments, the nucleic acid-targeting system as described herein is functional at 20° C., 21° C., 22° C., 23° C., 24° C., 24° C., 25° C., 26° C., 27° C., 28° C., 29° C., 30° C., 31° C., 32° C., 33° C., 34° C., 35° C., 36° C., 37° C., 38° C., 39° C., 40° C., 41° C., 42° C., 43° C., 44° C., 45° C., 46° C., 47° C., 48° C., 49° C., or 50° C.

In certain embodiments, one or more components of a nucleic acid-targeting system are comprised on one or more vectors for delivery to a eukaryotic cell. In some embodiments, one or more vector(s) encode(s): one or more of (i) one or more CRISPR-associated transposases, more particularly, one or more CRISPR-associated transposases comprising an amino acid sequence having at least 85%, at least 90%, at least 91%, at least 92%, at least 93%, at least 94%, at least 95%, at least 96%, at least 97%, at least 98%, at least 99%, or 100% homology to a sequence selected from the group consisting of SEQ ID NOs: 124-246 and 275-287; (ii) a first guide RNA capable of hybridizing to a first target sequence in a cell; and (iii) a second guide RNA capable of hybridizing to a second target sequence in the cell. Not wishes to be bound by a particular theory, the first guide RNA directs a first CRISPR-associated transposase to the first target sequence in the cell; the second guide RNA directs a second CRISPR-associated transposase to the second target sequence in the celle. The various coding sequences (CRISPR-associated transposase, guide RNAs) can be included on a single vector or on multiple vectors. For instance, it is possible to encode the CRISPR-associated transposase on one vector and the various RNA sequences on another vector, or to encode the CRISPR-associated transposase and various guide RNAs on one vector, and donor nucleic acids on additional vectors, or any other permutation. In an aspect, a system uses a total of one, two, three, four, five or more different vectors. Where multiple vectors are used, it is possible to deliver them in unequal numbers.

In certain embodiments, recombinant nucleic acids encoding guide RNAs may be designed in an array format such that multiple guide RNA sequences can be simultaneously released. In some embodiments, expression of one or more guide RNAs is U6-driven. In some embodiments, CRISPR-associated transposases complex with multiple guide RNAs to mediate genome editing and at multiple target sequences. Some embodiments relate to expression of singly or in tandem array format from 1 up to 4 or more different guide sequences; e.g. up to about 20 or about 30 guides sequences. Each individual guide sequence may target a different target sequence. Such may be processed from, e.g. one chimeric pol3 transcript. Pol3 promoters such as U6 or H1 promoters may be used. Pol2 promoters such as those mentioned throughout herein. Inverted terminal repeat (iTR) sequences may flank the Pol3 promoter-gRNA(s)-Pol2 promoter-Cas.

In another embodiment, a construct that will transiently express a gRNA and/or CRISPR-associated transposase is created and introduced into a cell. In yet another embodiment, the vector will produce sufficient quantities of the gRNAs and/or CRISPR-associated transposase in order for the desired episomal or genomic target site or sites to be effectively modified by a nucleic acid-targeting system as described herein. For instance, the disclosure contemplates preparation of a vector that can be bombarded, electroporated, chemically transfected or transported by some other means across the plant cell membrane. Such a vector could have several useful properties. For instance, in one embodiment, the vector can replicate in a bacterial host such that the vector can be produced and purified in sufficient quantities for transient expression. In another embodiment, the vector can encode a drug resistance gene to allow selection for the vector in a host, or the vector can also comprise an expression cassette to provide for the expression of the gRNA and/or CRISPR-associated transposase in a plant. In a further embodiment, the expression cassette could contain a promoter region, a 5′ untranslated region, an optional intron to aid expression, a multiple cloning site to allow facile introduction of a sequence encoding gRNAs and/or CRISPR-associated transposases, and a 3′ UTR. In particular embodiments, the promoters in the expression cassette would be U6 promoters from Zea maize. In yet other embodiments, the promoters would be chimeric U6 promoters from Zea maize. In some embodiments, it can be beneficial to include unique restriction sites at one or at each end of the expression cassette to allow the production and isolation of a linear expression cassette, which can then be free of other vector elements. The untranslated leader regions, in certain embodiments, can be plant-derived untranslated regions. Use of an intron, which can be plant-derived, is contemplated when the expression cassette is being transformed or transfected into a monocot cell.

In some embodiments, a recombinant nucleic acid as described herein may comprise multiple U6 promoters with differing sequences. A utility of having multiple U6 promoters with differing sequence is to minimize problems in vector stability, which is typically associated with sequence repeats. Further, highly repetitive regions in chromosomes may lead to genetic instability and silencing. Therefore, another utility of using multiple U6 promoters in the nucleic acid-targeting system is to facilitate vector stacking of multiple gRNA cassettes in the same transformation construct, where the differing gRNA transcript levels are to be maximized for efficient targeting of a single target site. Chimeric U6 promoters can result in new, functional versions with improved or otherwise modified expression levels.

In several embodiments, an expression vector comprises at least one expression cassette encoding one or more components of a nucleic acid-targeting system as described herein may comprise a promoter. In certain embodiments, the promoter is a constitutive promoter, a tissue specific promoter, a developmentally regulated promoter, or a cell cycle regulated promoter. Certain contemplated promoters include ones that only express in the germline or reproductive cells, among others. Such developmentally regulated promoters have the advantage of limiting the expression of the nucleic acid-targeting system to only those cells in which DNA is inherited in subsequent generations. Therefore, a nucleic acid-targeting system mediated genetic modification (i.e., chromosomal or episomal dsDNA cleavage) is limited only to cells that are involved in transmitting their genome from one generation to the next. This might be useful if broader expression of the nucleic acid-targeting system were genotoxic or had other unwanted effects. Examples of such promoters include the promoters of genes encoding DNA ligases, recombinases, replicases, and so on.

In some embodiments, the recombinant nucleic acid molecules described herein can be incorporated into any suitable plant transformation plasmid or vector. In some embodiments, the plant transformation plasmid or vector contains a selectable or screenable marker and associated regulatory elements as described, along with one or more nucleic acids encoded by a structural gene.

Inducible Nucleic Acid-Targeting System

In one aspect, the disclosure provides a non-naturally occurring or engineered nucleic acid-targeting system which may comprise at least one switch wherein the activity of the nucleic acid-targeting system is controlled by contact with at least one inducer energy source as to the switch. In an embodiment of the disclosure, the control as to the at least one switch or the activity of the nucleic acid-targeting system may be activated, enhanced, terminated or repressed. The contact with the at least one inducer energy source may result in a first effect and a second effect. The first effect may be one or more of nuclear import, nuclear export, recruitment of a secondary component (such as an effector molecule), conformational change (of protein, DNA or RNA), cleavage, release of cargo (such as a caged molecule or a cofactor), association or dissociation. The second effect may be one or more of activation, enhancement, termination or repression of the control as to the at least one switch or the activity of the nucleic acid-targeting system. In one embodiment the first effect and the second effect may occur in a cascade.

Aspects of control as detailed in this application relate to at least one or more switch(es). The term “switch” as used herein refers to a system or a set of components that act in a coordinated manner to affect a change, encompassing all aspects of biological function such as activation, repression, enhancement or termination of that function. In one aspect the term switch encompasses genetic switches which comprise the basic components of gene regulatory proteins and the specific DNA sequences that these proteins recognize. In one aspect, switches relate to inducible and repressible systems used in gene regulation. In general, an inducible system may be off unless there is the presence of some molecule (called an inducer) that allows for gene expression. The molecule is said to “induce expression”. The manner by which this happens is dependent on the control mechanisms as well as differences in cell type. A repressible system is on except in the presence of some molecule (called a corepressor) that suppresses gene expression. The molecule is said to “repress expression”. The manner by which this happens is dependent on the control mechanisms as well as differences in cell type. The term “inducible” as used herein may encompass all aspects of a switch irrespective of the molecular mechanism involved.

In another aspect of the disclosure the nucleic acid-targeting system may further comprise at least one or more nuclear localization signal (NLS), nuclear export signal (NES), functional domain, flexible linker, mutation, deletion, alteration or truncation. The one or more of the NLS, the NES or the functional domain may be conditionally activated or inactivated. In another embodiment, the mutation may be one or more of a mutation in a transcription factor homology region, a mutation in a DNA binding domain (such as mutating basic residues of a basic helix loop helix), a mutation in an endogenous NLS or a mutation in an endogenous NES. The disclosure comprehends that the inducer energy source may be heat, ultrasound, electromagnetic energy or chemical.

In some embodiments, the inducer energy source may be an antibiotic, a small molecule, a hormone, a hormone derivative, a steroid or a steroid derivative. In some embodiments, the inducer energy source may be abscisic acid (ABA), salicylic acid, doxycycline (DOX), cumate, rapamycin, 4-hydroxytamoxifen (4OHT), estrogen or ecdysone. The disclosure provides that the at least one switch may be selected from the group consisting of antibiotic based inducible systems, electromagnetic energy based inducible systems, small molecule based inducible systems, nuclear receptor based inducible systems and hormone based inducible systems.

The present nucleic acid-targeting system may be designed to modulate or alter expression of individual endogenous genes in a temporally and spatially precise manner. The nucleic acid-targeting system may be designed to bind to the promoter sequence of the gene of interest to change gene expression.

Another system contemplated by the present disclosure is a chemical inducible system based on change in sub-cellular localization. An inducible nucleic acid-targeting system may be engineered to target a genomic locus of interest where the CRISPR-associated transposase is split into two fusion constructs that are further linked to different parts of a chemical or energy sensitive protein. This chemical or energy sensitive protein will lead to a change in the sub-cellular localization of either half of the CRISPR-associated transposase upon the binding of a chemical or energy transfer to the chemical or energy sensitive protein. This transportation of fusion constructs from one sub-cellular compartments or organelles, in which its activity is sequestered due to lack of substrate for the reconstituted nucleic acid-targeting system, into another one in which the substrate is present would allow the components to come together and reconstitute functional activity and to then come in contact with its desired substrate (i.e. genomic DNA in the mammalian nucleus) and result in activation or repression of target gene expression.

Other inducible systems are contemplated such as, but not limited to, regulation by heavy-metals, steroid hormones, heat shock and other reagents have been developed.

In particular embodiments, the nucleic acid-targeting systems described herein are placed under the control of a passcode kill switch, which is a mechanisms which efficiently kills the host cell when the conditions of the cell are altered. In some embodiments, this is ensured by introducing hybrid Lacl-GalR family transcription factors, which require the presence of IPTG to be switched on (Chan et al. 2015 Nature Nature Chemical Biology doi:10.1038/nchembio.1979) which can be used to drive a gene encoding an enzyme critical for cell-survival. By combining different transcription factors sensitive to different chemicals, a “code” can be generated, This system can be used to spatially and temporally control the extent of nucleic acid-targeting system-induced genetic modifications, which can be of interest in different fields including therapeutic applications and may also be of interest to avoid the “escape” of transgene containing organisms from their intended environment.

Self-Inactivating Systems

In some embodiments, once all copies of a gene in the genome of a cell have been edited, continued nucleic acid-targeting system expression in that cell is no longer necessary. In some embodiments, sustained expression would be undesirable in case of off-target effects at unintended genomic sites, etc. In some embodiments, time-limited expression of components of the nucleic acid-targeting system would be useful. Inducible expression offers one approach, another approach may be a self-inactivating nucleic acid-targeting system that relies on the use of a non-coding guide target sequence within the vector itself. Thus, after expression begins, the nucleic acid-targeting system will lead to its own destruction, but before destruction is complete it will have time to edit the genomic copies of the target gene. In some embodiments, self inactivating nucleic acid-targeting system includes additional RNA (i.e., guide RNA) that targets the coding sequence for the CRISPR-associated transposase or that targets one or more non-coding guide target sequences complementary to unique sequences present in one or more of the following: (a) within the promoter driving expression of the non-coding RNA elements, (b) within the promoter driving expression of the CRISPR-associated transposase, (c) within 100 bp of the ATG translational start codon in the CRISPR-associated transposase coding sequence, (d) within the inverted terminal repeat (iTR) of a viral delivery vector.

In some embodiments, one or more guide RNAs can be delivered via a vector, e.g., a separate vector or the same vector that is encoding the CRISPR-associated transposase. When provided by a separate vector, a guide RNA that targets CRISPR-associated transposase expression can be administered sequentially or simultaneously. When administered sequentially, the guide RNA that targets CRISPR-associated transposase expression may be delivered after the guide RNA that is intended for gene editing or genome engineering. This period may be a period of minutes (e.g. 5 minutes, 10 minutes, 20 minutes, 30 minutes, 45 minutes, 60 minutes). This period may be a period of hours (e.g. 2 hours, 4 hours, 6 hours, 8 hours, 12 hours, 24 hours). This period may be a period of days (e.g. 2 days, 3 days, 4 days, 7 days). This period may be a period of weeks (e.g. 2 weeks, 3 weeks, 4 weeks). This period may be a period of months (e.g. 2 months, 4 months, 8 months, 12 months). This period may be a period of years (2 years, 3 years, 4 years). In some embodiments, the CRISPR-associated transposase associates with a first guide RNA capable of hybridizing to a first target, such as a genomic locus or loci of interest and undertakes the function(s) desired of the nucleic acid-targeting system (e.g., gene engineering); and subsequently the CRISPR-associated transposase may then associate with the second guide RNA capable of hybridizing to the sequence encoding at least part of the CRISPR-associated transposase. Where the guide RNA targets the sequences encoding expression of the CRISPR-associated transposase, the transposase becomes impeded and the system becomes self inactivating. In some embodiments, guide RNA that targets CRISPR-associated transposase expression applied via, for example particle bombardment, lipofection, nanoparticles, microvesicles, may be administered sequentially or simultaneously. Similarly, self-inactivation may be used for inactivation of one or more guide RNA used to target one or more targets.

In some aspects, a single guide RNA is provided that is capable of hybridizing to a sequence downstream of a start codon, thereby after a period of time there is a loss of CRISPR-associated transposase expression. In some aspects, one or more guide RNA(s) are provided that are capable of hybridizing to one or more coding or non-coding regions of the polynucleotide encoding one or more components the nucleic acid-targeting system, whereby after a period of time there is a inactivation of one or more, or in some cases all, of the components of the nucleic acid-targeting system. In some aspects, and not to be limited, a cell may comprise a plurality of CRISPR-associated enzymes, where a first CRISPR-associated enzyme targets a genomic locus or loci to be edited, and a second CRISPR-associated enzyme targets the polynucleotide encoding one or more components of the nucleic acid-targeting system. In some embodiments, the first and second CRISPR-associated enzymes are independently selected from the group consisting of Cas9, Cpf1, Ncc1 and CRISPR-associated transposase.

Modification of CRISPR-Associated Transposases

In an embodiment, nucleic acid molecule(s) encoding the CRISPR-associated transposases disclosed herein, or an ortholog or homolog thereof, may be codon-optimized for expression in an eukaryotic cell. In some embodiments, nucleic acid molecule(s) encoding the CRISPR-associated transposases disclosed herein, or an ortholog or homolog thereof, may be codon-optimized for expression in a plant cell. Examples of codon-optimized nucleic acid molecule(s) encoding the CRISPR-associated transposases are provided in Table 12. In some embodiments, a nucleic acid molecule may comprise one or more sequences selected from SEQ ID NOs: 2020-2699. In some embodiments, a nucleic acid molecule may comprise one or more sequences selected from SEQ ID NOs: 2700-3379. Nucleic acid molecule(s) can be engineered or non-naturally occurring. The terms “non-naturally occurring” or “engineered” are used interchangeably and indicate the involvement of the hand of man. The terms, when referring to nucleic acid molecules or polypeptides mean that the nucleic acid molecule or the polypeptide is at least substantially free from at least one other component with which they are naturally associated in nature and as found in nature. The nucleic acid-targeting systems described herein are non-naturally occurring.

In some embodiments, the CRISPR-associated transposases disclosed herein, or an ortholog or homolog thereof, may comprise one or more mutations (and hence nucleic acid molecule(s) coding for same may have mutation(s)). The mutations may be artificially introduced mutations and may include but are not limited to one or more mutations in a catalytic domain. Examples of catalytic domains with reference to a CRISPR-associated transposases may include but are not limited to RuvC I, RuvC II, RuvC III and IS605_ORFB domains.

In some embodiments, the CRISPR-associated transposases disclosed herein, or an ortholog or homolog thereof, may be used as a generic nucleic acid binding protein with fusion to or being operably linked to a functional domain. Examples of functional domains may include but are not limited to PvuII, MutH, TevI, FokI, AlwI, MlyI, SbfI, SdaI, StsI, CleDORF, Clo051, Pept071, recombinanse, transposase, methylase, translational initiator, translational activator, translational repressor, nucleases, in particular ribonucleases, a spliceosome, beads, a light inducible/controllable domain or a chemically inducible/controllable domain. The FokI nuclease domain requires dimerization to cleave DNA and therefore CRISPR-associated transposases with Fok1 functional domains are needed to bind opposite DNA strands of the cleavage site.

In some embodiments, the unmodified CRISPR-associated transposases may have cleavage activity. In some embodiments, the CRISPR-associated transposase directs cleavage of one or both nucleic acid (DNA or RNA) strands at the location of or near a target sequence, such as within the target sequence and/or within the complement of the target sequence or at sequences associated with the target sequence. In some embodiments, the CRISPR-associated transposase may direct cleavage of one or both DNA or RNA strands within about 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 15, 20, 25, 50, 100, 200, 500, or more base pairs from the first or last nucleotide of a target sequence. In some embodiments, the cleavage may be staggered, i.e. generating sticky ends. In some embodiments, the cleavage is a staggered cut with a 5′ overhang. In some embodiments, the cleavage is a staggered cut with a 5′ overhang of 1 to 5 nucleotides, 4 or 5 nucleotides. In some embodiments, a vector encodes a CRISPR-associated transposase that may be mutated with respect to a corresponding wild-type enzyme such that the mutated CRISPR-associated transposase lacks the ability to cleave one or both DNA or RNA strands of a target polynucleotide containing a target sequence. As a further example, two or more catalytic domains of a CRISPR-associated transposase (e.g. RuvC I, RuvC II, RuvC III or IS605 ORFB domain) may be mutated to produce a mutated CRISPR-associated transposases substantially lacking all DNA cleavage activity. In some embodiments, a CRISPR-associated transposases may be considered to substantially lack all cleavage activity when the cleavage activity of the mutated CRISPR-associated transposase is about no more than 25%, 10%, 5%, 1%, 0.1%, 0.01%, or less of the nucleic acid cleavage activity of the non-mutated form of the enzyme; an example can be when the nucleic acid cleavage activity of the mutated CRISPR-associated transposases is negligible as compared with the non-mutated CRISPR-associated transposase.

Target Sequences

As used herein, the term “target polynucleotide” or “target sequence” refers to a nucleotide sequence that occurs in a polynucleotide against which a CRISPR-associated transposase is directed. In some embodiments, the target polynucleotide or target sequence is in a gene. In this context, the term “gene” means a locatable region of genomic sequence, corresponding to a unit of inheritance, which includes regulatory regions, such as promoters, enhancers, 5′ untranslated regions, intron regions, 3′ untranslated regions, transcribed regions, and other functional sequence regions that may exist as native genes or transgenes in a plant genome. Depending upon the circumstances, the term target sequence or target gene can refer to the full-length nucleotide sequence of the gene or gene product targeted for suppression or the nucleotide sequence of a portion of the gene or gene product targeted for suppression.

The target polynucleotide of a nucleic acid-targeting system as described herein can be any polynucleotide endogenous or exogenous to a prokaryotic or a eukaryotic cell. For example, the target polynucleotide can be a polynucleotide residing in the nucleus of the eukaryotic cell. The target polynucleotide can be a sequence coding a gene product (e.g., a protein) or a non-coding sequence (e.g., a regulatory polynucleotide or a junk DNA), or a combination of both.

Examples of target polynucleotides include a sequence associated with a signaling biochemical pathway, e.g., a signaling biochemical pathway-associated gene or polynucleotide. Examples of target polynucleotides include genes that encode proteins that provide tolerance to herbicides, such as 5-enolpyruvylshikimate-3-phosphate synthase (EPSPS), glyphosate oxidoreductase (GOX), glyphosate decarboxylase, glyphosate-N-acetyl transferase (GAT), dicamba monooxygenase, phosphinothricin acetyltransferase, 2,2-dichloropropionic acid dehalogenase, acetohydroxyacid synthase, acetolactate synthase (ALS), haloarylnitrilase, acetyl-coenzyme A carboxylase, dihydropteroate synthase, phytoene desaturase, Protoporphyrinogen oxidase (PPO), protoporphyrin IX oxygenase, hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase, para-aminobenzoate synthase, glutamine synthase, cellulose synthase, beta-tubulin, 4-Hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase (HPPD) and serine hydroxymethyltransferase. Examples of target polynucleotides include polynucleotides associated with a disease resistance locus. As used herein, the term “disease resistance locus” refers to a genomic region associated with disease or pathogen resistance in a plant. A disease resistance locus may comprise one or more genes, gene families, arrays of genes or QTLs encoding a protein or proteins that confer to a plant resistance to at least one disease or pathogen. In one embodiment, the disease resistance locus comprises one or more NBS-LRR disease resistance genes, also referred to as NB-LRR genes, R genes, LRR genes. In another embodiment, the disease resistance locus comprises one or more PRR disease resistance genes. The disease resistance locus may encompass a specific gene, cluster of genes, array of genes and/or gene family known to confer pathogen resistance, for example Rp1, or Rpp1, or Rps1. In another embodiment, the disease resistance locus comprises the Rgh1 locus. In another embodiment, the disease resistance locus comprises the Rgh4 locus. Alternatively, the disease resistance locus may encompass a genomic region but the actual gene/element composition conferring disease resistance is unknown. Examples of target polynucleotides include polynucleotides that encode quality traits, such as brown midrib (bmr), waxy, white, Fad2, Fad3.

Without wishing to be bound by theory, it is believed that the target sequence should be associated with a PAM (protospacer adjacent motif); that is, a short sequence recognized by the CRISPR-associated transposase. The precise sequence and length requirements for the PAM differ depending on the CRISPR-associated transposase used, but PAMs are typically 2-5 base pairs adjacent the target sequence. In some embodiments, the PAM is 5′ to the target sequence. In some embodiments, the PAM is 3′ to the target sequence. Examples of PAM sequences are given in Example 2 below, and the skilled person will be able to identify further PAM sequences for use with a given CRISPR-associated transposase. Further, engineering of the PAM Interacting (PI) domain may allow programming of PAM specificity, improve target site recognition fidelity, and increase the versatility of the CRISPR-associated transposase.

Gene Editing or Altering Target Loci

In some embodiments, a double strand break or single strand break in one of the strands is sufficiently close to a target sequence such that template repair occurs. In an embodiment, the distance is not more than 10, 20, 50, 100, 150, 200, 250, 300, 350 or 400 nucleotides. While not wishing to be bound by a particular theory, it is believed that the break should be sufficiently close to a target sequence such that the break is within the region that is subject to exonuclease-mediated removal during end resection.

In an embodiment, a CRISPR-associated transposase comprising an amino acid sequence having at least 85%, at least 90%, at least 91%, at least 92%, at least 93%, at least 94%, at least 95%, at least 96%, at least 97%, at least 98%, at least 99%, or 100% homology to a sequence selected from the group consisting of SEQ ID NOs: 124-246 and 275-287 or an ortholog or homolog thereof, induces a double strand break for the purpose of inducing HDR-mediated repair, where the cleavage site is between 0-200 bp (e.g., 0 to 175, 0 to 150, 0 to 125, 0 to 100, 0 to 75, 0 to 50, 0 to 25, 25 to 200, 25 to 175, 25 to 150, 25 to 125, 25 to 100, 25 to 75, 25 to 50, 50 to 200, 50 to 175, 50 to 150, 50 to 125, 50 to 100, 50 to 75, 75 to 200, 75 to 175, 75 to 150, 75 to 125, 75 to 100 bp) away from the target sequence. In an embodiment, the cleavage site is between 0-100 bp (e.g., 0 to 75, 0 to 50, 0 to 25, 25 to 100, 25 to 75, 25 to 50, 50 to 100, 50 to 75 or 75 to 100 bp) away from the target sequence.

In some embodiments, homology arms extend at least as far as the region in which end resection may occur, e.g., in order to allow the resected single stranded overhang to find a complementary region within the donor template. In some embodiments, the overall length is limited by parameters such as plasmid size or viral packaging limits. Examples of homology arm lengths include a least 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50, 55, 60, 65, 70, 75, 80, 85, 90, 95, 100, 150, 200, 250, 300, 350, 400, 450, 500, 550, 600, 650, 700, 750, 800, 850, 900, 950 or 1000 nucleotides.

Target sequence, as used herein, refers to a nucleic acid sequence that is modified by a CRISPR-associated transposase comprising an amino acid sequence having at least 85%, at least 90%, at least 91%, at least 92%, at least 93%, at least 94%, at least 95%, at least 96%, at least 97%, at least 98%, at least 99%, or 100% homology to a sequence selected from the group consisting of SEQ ID NOs: 124-246 and 275-287 or an ortholog or homolog thereof. In some embodiments, the CRISPR-associated transposase is directed to the target sequence by a guide RNA. A target sequence can be modified by cleavage by a CRISPR-associated transposase and repair of the target sequence. In an embodiment, repair of a target sequence can result in addition or deletion of one or more nucleotides. In some embodiments, the target sequence may comprise one or more nucleotides that are altered by incorporation of a template nucleic acid.

In certain embodiments, CRISPR-associated transposase-induced non-homologous end-joining (NHEJ) can be used to target gene-specific knockouts. CRISPR-associated transposase-induced NHEJ can also be used to remove (e.g., delete) sequence in a gene of interest. Generally, NHEJ repairs a double-strand break in the DNA by joining together the two ends; however, generally, the original sequence is restored only if two compatible ends, exactly as they were formed by the double-strand break, are perfectly ligated. The DNA ends of the double-strand break are frequently the subject of enzymatic processing, resulting in the addition or removal of nucleotides, at one or both strands, prior to rejoining of the ends. This results in the presence of insertion and/or deletion (indel) mutations in the DNA sequence at the site of the NHEJ repair. Two-thirds of these mutations typically alter the reading frame and, therefore, produce a non-functional protein. Additionally, mutations that maintain the reading frame, but which insert or delete a significant amount of sequence, can destroy functionality of the protein. This is locus dependent as mutations in critical functional domains are likely less tolerable than mutations in non-critical regions of the protein. The indel mutations generated by NHEJ are unpredictable in nature; however, at a given break site certain indel sequences are favored and are over represented in the population, likely due to small regions of microhomology. The lengths of deletions can vary widely; most commonly in the 1-50 bp range, but they can easily be greater than 50 bp, e.g., they can easily reach greater than about 100-200 bp. Insertions tend to be shorter and often include short duplications of the sequence immediately surrounding the break site. However, it is possible to obtain large insertions, and in these cases, the inserted sequence has often been traced to other regions of the genome or to plasmid DNA present in the cells.

Because NHEJ is a mutagenic process, it may also be used to delete small sequence motifs as long as the generation of a specific final sequence is not required. If a double-strand break is targeted near to a short target sequence, the deletion mutations caused by the NHEJ repair often span, and therefore remove, the unwanted nucleotides. For the deletion of larger DNA segments, introducing two double-strand breaks, one on each side of the sequence, can result in NHEJ between the ends with removal of the entire intervening sequence. Both of these approaches can be used to delete specific DNA sequences; however, the error-prone nature of NHEJ may still produce indel mutations at the site of repair.

Both double strand cleaving and single strand cleaving CRISPR-associated transposases, or an ortholog or homolog thereof, can be used in the methods and compositions described herein to generate NHEJ-mediated indels. NHEJ-mediated indels targeted to a gene, e.g., a coding region, e.g., an early coding region of a gene of interest can be used to knockout (i.e., eliminate expression of) a gene of interest. For example, early coding region of a gene of interest includes sequence immediately following a transcription start site, within a first exon of the coding sequence, or within 500 bp of the transcription start site (e.g., less than 500, 450, 400, 350, 300, 250, 200, 150, 100 or 50 bp).

Genome Wide Knock-Out Screening

The CRISPR-associated transposases and nucleic acid-targeting systems described herein can be used to perform functional genomic screens. In some embodiments, genomic screens can utilize guide RNA based genome wide libraries. Such screens and libraries can provide for determining the function of genes, cellular pathways genes are involved in, and how any alteration in gene expression can result in a particular biological process. In some embodiments, the CRISPR-associated transposase comprises an amino acid sequence having at least 85%, at least 90%, at least 91%, at least 92%, at least 93%, at least 94%, at least 95%, at least 96%, at least 97%, at least 98%, at least 99%, or 100% homology to a sequence selected from the group consisting of SEQ ID NOs: 124-246 and 275-287 or an ortholog or homolog thereof.

In some embodiments, a genome wide library may comprise a plurality of guide RNAs, as described herein, comprising guide sequences that are capable of targeting a plurality of target sequences in a plurality of genomic loci in a population of eukaryotic cells. The population of cells may be a population of plant cells. The target sequence in the genomic locus may be a non-coding sequence. The non-coding sequence may be an intron, regulatory sequence, splice site, 3′ UTR, 5′ UTR, or polyadenylation signal. Gene function of one or more gene products may be altered by said targeting.

The nucleic acid-targeting system may comprise one or more different vectors. In an aspect of the disclosure, the CRISPR-associated transposase is codon optimized for expression the desired cell type, preferentially a eukaryotic cell, preferably a plant cell.

Delivery of the Nucleic Acid-Targeting Systems and Components Thereof

Through this disclosure and the knowledge in the art, nucleic acid-targeting system, specifically the novel systems described herein, or components thereof or nucleic acid molecules thereof (including, for instance HDR template) or nucleic acid molecules encoding or providing components thereof may be delivered by a delivery system herein described both generally and in detail.

The CRISPR-associated transposases, for instance those encoded by a polynucleotide sequence selected from SEQ ID NOs: 1-123, 604-627 and 2020-3379, and/or any of the present RNAs, for instance a guide RNA, can be delivered using any suitable vector, e.g., plasmid or viral vectors, such as Ti plasmids of Agrobacterium tumefaciens, geminivirus, Tobacco Rattle Virus (TRV), Potato virus X (PVX), Tomato yellow leaf curl China virus (TYLCCV), Begomovirus, Barley stripe mosaic virus (BSMV), Cymbidium mosaic virus (CymMV), Rice tungro bacilliform virus (RTBV), Cauliflower mosaic virus (CaMV), Turnip yellow mosaic virus (TYMV), Cabbage leaf curl virus (CbLCV), Apple latent spherical virus (ALSV), Cucumber mosaic virus (CMV), Cotton leaf crumple virus (CLCrV), African cassava mosaic virus (ACMV), Pea early browning virus (PEBV), Beet curly top virus (BCTV), adeno associated virus (AAV), lentivirus, adenovirus or other viral vector types, or combinations thereof. Polynucleotides encoding CRISPR-associated transposases can be packaged into one or more vectors, e.g., plasmid or viral vectors. In some embodiments, the vector, e.g., plasmid or viral vector, is delivered to the tissue of interest by, for example, particle bombardment, Agrobacterium infection, or other delivery methods. Such delivery may be either via a single dose, or multiple doses. One skilled in the art understands that the actual dosage to be delivered herein may vary greatly depending upon a variety of factors, such as the vector choice, the target cell, organism, or tissue, the general condition of the subject to be treated, the degree of transformation/modification sought, the administration route, the administration mode, the type of transformation/modification sought, etc.

Such a dosage may further contain, for example, a carrier (water, saline, ethanol, glycerol, lactose, sucrose, calcium phosphate, gelatin, dextran, agar, pectin, peanut oil, sesame oil, etc.), a diluent, a pharmaceutically-acceptable carrier (e.g., phosphate-buffered saline), a pharmaceutically-acceptable excipient, and/or other compounds known in the art. The dosage may further contain one or more pharmaceutically acceptable salts such as, for example, a mineral acid salt such as a hydrochloride, a hydrobromide, a phosphate, a sulfate, etc.; and the salts of organic acids such as acetates, propionates, malonates, benzoates, etc. Additionally, auxiliary substances, such as wetting or emulsifying agents, pH buffering substances, gels or gelling materials, flavorings, colorants, microspheres, polymers, suspension agents, etc. may also be present herein. In addition, one or more other conventional pharmaceutical ingredients, such as preservatives, humectants, suspending agents, surfactants, antioxidants, anticaking agents, fillers, chelating agents, coating agents, chemical stabilizers, etc. may also be present, especially if the dosage form is a reconstitutable form. Suitable ingredients include microcrystalline cellulose, carboxymethylcellulose sodium, polysorbate 80, phenylethyl alcohol, chlorobutanol, potassium sorbate, sorbic acid, sulfur dioxide, propyl gallate, the parabens, ethyl vanillin, glycerin, phenol, parachlorophenol, gelatin, albumin and a combination thereof. A thorough discussion of pharmaceutically acceptable excipients is available in REMINGTON'S PHARMACEUTICAL SCIENCES (Mack Pub. Co., N.J. 1991) which is incorporated by reference herein.

In an embodiment herein the delivery is via a plasmid. In such plasmid compositions, the dosage should be a sufficient amount of plasmid to elicit a response. For instance, suitable quantities of plasmid DNA in plasmid compositions can be from about 0.1 to about 2 mg, or from about 1 μg to about 10 μg. Plasmids of the disclosure will generally comprise one or more of (i) a promoter; (ii) a sequence encoding CRISPR-associated transposase, operably linked to said promoter; (iii) a selectable marker; (iv) an origin of replication; and (v) a transcription terminator downstream of and operably linked to (ii). The plasmid can also encode a guide RNA and/or a tracrRNA, but one or more of these may instead be encoded on a different vector.

In some embodiments the RNA molecules of the disclosure are delivered in liposome or lipofectin formulations and the like and can be prepared by methods well known to those skilled in the art. Such methods are described, for example, in U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,593,972, 5,589,466, 5,580,859, and 9,121,022 which are herein incorporated by reference. Delivery systems aimed specifically at the enhanced and improved delivery of siRNA into mammalian cells have been developed, (see, for example, Shen et al FEBS Let. 2003, 539:111-114; Xia et al., Nat. Biotech. 2002, 20:1006-1010; Reich et al., Mol. Vision. 2003, 9: 210-216; Sorensen et al., J. Mol. Biol. 2003, 327: 761-766; Lewis et al., Nat. Gen. 2002, 32: 107-108 and Simeoni et al., NAR 2003, 31, 11: 2717-2724) and may be applied to the present disclosure.

In some embodiments, RNA delivery is in vivo delivery. It is possible to deliver RNA molecules encoding CRISPR-associated transposases and guide RNAs into cells using liposomes or nanoparticles. Thus delivery of the CRISPR-associated transposases and/or delivery of the RNAs of the disclosure may be in RNA form and via microvesicles, liposomes or particle or particles. For example, mRNA encoding a CRISPR-associated transposase can be packaged into liposomal particles for delivery in vivo. Liposomal transfection reagents such as lipofectamine from Life Technologies and other reagents on the market can effectively deliver RNA molecules into the liver.

Means of delivery of RNA also include delivery of RNA via particles (Cho, S., Goldberg, M., Son, S., Xu, Q., Yang, F., Mei, Y., Bogatyrev, S., Langer, R. and Anderson, D., Lipid-like nanoparticles for small interfering RNA delivery to endothelial cells, Advanced Functional Materials, 19: 3112-3118, 2010) or exosomes (Schroeder, A., Levins, C., Cortez, C., Langer, R., and Anderson, D., Lipid-based nanotherapeutics for siRNA delivery, Journal of Internal Medicine, 267: 9-21, 2010, PMID: 20059641). Indeed, exosomes have been shown to be particularly useful in delivery siRNA, a system with some parallels to the CRISPR system. For instance, El-Andaloussi S, et al. (“Exosome-mediated delivery of siRNA in vitro and in vivo.” Nat Protoc. 2012 December; 7(12):2112-26. doi: 10.1038/nprot.2012.131. Epub 2012 Nov. 15.) describe how exosomes are promising tools for drug delivery across different biological barriers and can be harnessed for delivery of siRNA in vitro and in vivo.

Several embodiments relate to enhancing NHEJ or HR efficiency. NHEJ efficiency can be enhanced by co-expressing end-processing enzymes such as Trex2 (Dumitrache et al. Genetics. 2011 August; 188(4): 787-797). It is preferred that HR efficiency is increased by transiently inhibiting NHEJ machineries such as Ku70 and Ku86. HR efficiency can also be increased by co-expressing prokaryotic or eukaryotic homologous recombination enzymes such as RecBCD, RecA.

Particle Delivery Systems and/or Formulations

Several types of particle delivery systems and/or formulations are known to be useful in a diverse spectrum of applications. In general, a particle is defined as a small object that behaves as a whole unit with respect to its transport and properties. Particles are further classified according to diameter. Coarse particles cover a range between 2,500 and 10,000 nanometers. Fine particles are sized between 100 and 2,500 nanometers. Ultrafine particles, or nanoparticles, are generally between 1 and 100 nanometers in size. The basis of the 100-nm limit is the fact that novel properties that differentiate particles from the bulk material typically develop at a critical length scale of under 100 nm.

As used herein, a particle delivery system/formulation is defined as any biological delivery system/formulation which includes a particle in accordance with the present disclosure. A particle in accordance with the present disclosure is any entity having a greatest dimension (e.g. diameter) of less than 100 microns (μm). In some embodiments, inventive particles have a greatest dimension of less than 10 μm. In some embodiments, inventive particles have a greatest dimension of less than 2000 nanometers (nm). In some embodiments, inventive particles have a greatest dimension of less than 1000 nanometers (nm). In some embodiments, inventive particles have a greatest dimension of less than 900 nm, 800 nm, 700 nm, 600 nm, 500 nm, 400 nm, 300 nm, 200 nm, or 100 nm. Typically, inventive particles have a greatest dimension (e.g., diameter) of 500 nm or less. In some embodiments, inventive particles have a greatest dimension (e.g., diameter) of 250 nm or less. In some embodiments, inventive particles have a greatest dimension (e.g., diameter) of 200 nm or less. In some embodiments, inventive particles have a greatest dimension (e.g., diameter) of 150 nm or less. In some embodiments, inventive particles have a greatest dimension (e.g., diameter) of 100 nm or less. Smaller particles, e.g., having a greatest dimension of 50 nm or less are used in some embodiments of the disclosure. In some embodiments, inventive particles have a greatest dimension ranging between 25 nm and 200 nm.

Particles delivery systems within the scope of the present disclosure may be provided in any form, including but not limited to solid, semi-solid, emulsion, or colloidal particles. As such any of the delivery systems described herein, including but not limited to, e.g., lipid-based systems, liposomes, micelles, microvesicles, exosomes, or gene gun may be provided as particle delivery systems within the scope of the present disclosure.

The disclosure involves at least one component of the nucleic acid-targeting system, e.g., CRISPR-associated transposase, gRNA, delivered via at least one nanoparticle complex. In some aspects, the disclosure provides methods comprising delivering one or more polynucleotides, such as or one or more vectors as described herein, one or more transcripts thereof, and/or one or proteins transcribed therefrom, to a host cell. In some aspects, the disclosure further provides cells produced by such methods, and plants comprising or produced from such cells. In some embodiments, a CRISPR-associated transposase in combination with (and optionally complexed with) a guide RNA is delivered to a cell. Conventional viral and non-viral based gene transfer methods can be used to introduce nucleic acids in plant cells or target tissues. Such methods can be used to administer nucleic acids encoding components of a nucleic acid-targeting system to cells in culture, or in a host organism. Non-viral vector delivery systems include DNA plasmids, RNA (e.g. a transcript of a vector described herein), naked nucleic acid, and nucleic acid complexed with a delivery vehicle, such as a liposome. Viral vector delivery systems include DNA and RNA viruses, which have either episomal or integrated genomes after delivery to the cell.

In some embodiments, one or more vectors described herein are used to produce a non-human transgenic animal or transgenic plant. In some embodiments, the transgenic animal is a mammal, such as a mouse, rat, or rabbit. Methods for producing transgenic animals and plants are known in the art, and generally begin with a method of cell transfection, such as described herein. In one aspect, the disclosure provides for methods of modifying a target polynucleotide in a eukaryotic cell. In some embodiments, the method comprises allowing a CRISPR-associated transposase to effect cleavage of said target polynucleotide thereby modifying the target polynucleotide.

Use of Nucleic Acid-Targeting System in Plants

The nucleic acid-targeting systems disclosed herein can be used in conjunction with recent advances in crop genomics. The systems described herein can be used to perform efficient and cost effective plant gene or genome interrogation or editing or manipulation. The nucleic acid-targeting systems can be used with regard to plants in Site-Directed Integration (SDI) or Gene Editing (GE) or any near reverse breeding or reverse breeding techniques. Aspects of utilizing the herein described nucleic acid-targeting systems may be analogous to the use of the CRISPR-Cas (e.g. CRISPR-Cas9) system in plants, and mention is made of the University of Arizona web site “CRISPR-PLANT” (http://www.genome.arizona.edu/crispr/) (supported by Penn State and AGI).

The methods for genome editing using the nucleic acid-targeting system as described herein can be used to confer desired traits on essentially any plant. A wide variety of plants and plant cell systems may be engineered for the desired physiological and agronomic characteristics described herein using the nucleic acid constructs of the present disclosure and the various transformation methods mentioned above.

In some embodiments, the polynucleotides encoding the components of the nucleic acid-targeting system are introduced for stable integration into the genome of a plant cell. In these embodiments, the design of the transformation vector or the expression system can be adjusted depending on for when, where and under what conditions the guide RNA and/or the CRISPR-associated transposase are expressed.

In some embodiments, the polynucleotides encoding the components of the nucleic acid-targeting system are transiently expressed in a plant, plant tissue, or plant cell. In these embodiments, the nucleic acid-targeting system can ensure modification of a target gene only when the CRISPR-associated transposase is present in a cell, such that genomic modification can further be controlled. As the expression of the CRISPR-associated transposase is transient, plants regenerated from such plant cells typically contain no foreign DNA. In particular embodiments, the CRISPR-associated transposase is stably expressed by the plant cell and a guide RNA is transiently expressed. In particular embodiments the CRISPR-associated transposase is stably expressed by the plant cell and the guide RNA is provided directly to the plant cell by any method described herein.

DNA construct(s) encoding components of the nucleic acid-targeting system, and, where applicable, template sequence, may be introduced into a plant, plant part, or plant cell by a variety of conventional techniques.

In particular embodiments, nucleic acid-targeting system components can be introduced in the plant cells using a plant viral vector. In some embodiments, the viral vector is a vector from a DNA virus. For example, geminivirus (e.g., cabbage leaf curl virus, bean yellow dwarf virus, wheat dwarf virus, tomato leaf curl virus, maize streak virus, tobacco leaf curl virus, or tomato golden mosaic virus) or nanovirus (e.g., Fava bean necrotic yellow virus). In some embodiments, the viral vector is a vector from an RNA virus. For example, tobravirus (e.g., tobacco rattle virus, tobacco mosaic virus), potexvirus (e.g., potato virus X), or hordeivirus (e.g., barley stripe mosaic virus). The replicating genomes of plant viruses are non-integrative vectors.

The methods described herein generally result in the generation of plants comprising one or more desirable traits compared to the wild-type plant. In some embodiments, the plants, plant cells or plant parts obtained are transgenic plants, comprising an exogenous DNA sequence incorporated into the genome of all or part of the cells of the plant. In other embodiments, non-transgenic genetically modified plants, plant parts or cells are obtained, in that no exogenous DNA sequence is incorporated into the genome of any of the plant cells of the plant. In such embodiments, the plants are non-transgenic. Where only the modification of an endogenous gene is ensured and no foreign genes are introduced or maintained in the plant genome; the resulting genetically modified plants contain no non-native genes.

In some embodiments the nucleic acid-targeting system is targeted to a chloroplast. In some embodiments, targeting may be achieved by the presence of an N-terminal extension, called a chloroplast transit peptide (CTP) or plastid transit peptide.

The following Examples, while indicating embodiments of the invention, are provided for illustrative purposes only and should not be used to limit the invention.

EXAMPLES Example 1: Identification of Bacterial Sequences Encoding CRISPR-Associated Transposases

A number of sequences encoding transposases were identified based on their close proximity to a CRISPR (repeat element) locus. Polynucleotide sequences encoding transposases were identified by bioinformatic searching of bacterial genomes from Lysinibacillus sp., Brevibacillus sp., Sphingobium sp., Undibacterium sp., Bacillus sp., Chryseobacterium sp., Sphingomonas sp., Labrys sp., Brevibacillus laterosporus, Bacillus thuringiensis, Bacillus weihenstephanensis, Bacillus megaterium, Enterococcus faecalis, Brevibacillus brevis, Undibacterium pigrum, Novosphingobium rosa, Labrys methylaminiphdus, Brevibacillus parabrevis, Paenibacillus sp., Paenibacillus thiaminolyticus, Paenibacillus lentimorbus, Paenibacillus terrae, Streptomyces sp., and Stenotrophomonas sp.

A search of 15980 bacterial genomes for CRISPR sequences using the CRISPR recognition toolv1.1 was completed (Bland, 2007; web address: room220.com/crt). From this search, 20467 CRISPR loci were identified, of which 622 CRISPR loci were identified within 2 kb of the coding regions annotated as putative transposases. The CRISPR loci were further prioritized and narrowed down to 521 unique loci by excluding loci that: were associated with known Cas proteins; occurred within a coding region; or originated from an undesirable bacterial strain. The prioritization resulted in identification of 123 unique CRISPR-associated transposase proteins (SEQ ID NO: 124-246) with at least 300 amino acids (encoded by nucleotide sequences SEQ ID NO: 1-123).

The transposase protein sequences (SEQ ID NO: 124-246) were aligned using the USEARCH tool at 50% sequence identity cutoff (Edgar, 2010) and 12 sequence alignment clusters were identified, as shown in Table 1. From the 12 sequence alignment clusters, 23 transposase proteins were selected to represent protein diversity and the respective associated CRISPR array polynucleotide sequences are provided in Table 2.

The transposase protein sequences in each cluster can be aligned to further demonstrate sequence similarities among them and one example is provided in FIG. 1 for cluster 4 (SEQ ID NO: 228-231). Sequence identity percentages among protein sequences in cluster 4 are presented in Table 3. Each cell in the table shows the percentage identity for the transposase protein in the corresponding row (query sequence) as compared to the transposase protein in the corresponding column (subject sequence) divided by the total length of the query sequence, and the number in parenthesis is the total number of identical residues between the query and subject sequences. As can be seen from Table 3 and FIG. 1, the percentage identity among protein sequences for these transposases in cluster 4 ranges from about 86% to about 98% identity.

A transposase protein sequence encoded by a polynucleotide sequence as described herein may also be designed or chosen to have one or more amino acid substitution(s) known to be chemically and/or structurally conservative (for example, replacing one amino acid with another having similar chemical or physical properties, such as hydrophobicity, polarity, charge, steric effect, acid/base chemistry, similar side chain group, such as hydroxyl, sulfhydryl, amino, etc.) to avoid or minimize structural changes to the protein that might affect its function. Examples of conservative amino acid substitutions are presented in Table 4. A transposase protein sequence encoded by a polynucleotide sequence as described herein may include proteins that differ in one or more amino acids from those of a CRISPR-associated transposase of SEQ ID NOs: 124-246 or similar sequence as a result of deletion(s) and/or insertion(s) involving one or more amino acids, and may also be designed or chosen based on known transposase protein sequences and their conserved amino acid residues and domains. Amino acid mutations may be made as a single amino acid substitution in the protein or in combination with one or more other mutation(s), such as one or more other amino acid substitution(s), deletions, or additions. Mutations may be made by any method known to those of skill in the art.

In the initial search parameters, transposases that were 300 amino acids or longer and within 2 kb of CRISPR loci were selected. In this round, additional transposases were selected if they were within 2.2 kb of CRISPR loci, regardless of the protein length. A total of 13 additional transposase proteins were identified, SEQ ID NOs: 275-287.

Example 2: Sequence Analysis for the Identified CRISPR-Associated Transposases

Pfam annotation of the identified 136 sequences encoding CRISPR-associated transposases is presented in Table 5. For each protein, the domain ID is indicated (for example, PUF, OrfB_IS605, or OrfB_Zn_ribbon), then the domain E-value, then the pfam domain coordinates (from and to), followed by the endpoint coordinate symbols. For each pair of query and target endpoint coordinates, the endpoint coordinate symbols have the following meaning: both ends of the alignment ended internally is represented by “..”; both ends of the alignment were full-length flush to the ends of the query and target is represented by “[ ]”; where only the left or right end was flush/full-length is represented by “[.” Or “.],” respectively (Eddy, 2009; web site hmmer.org).

Protein Clustering

The CRISPR-associated transposase protein sequences (SEQ ID NOs: 124-246, 275-287) were aligned using the USEARCH tool at 50% sequence identity cutoff (Edgar, 2010) and 13 sequence alignment clusters were identified, as shown in Table 6. The majority of the identified transposases belong to cluster 1, and the Pfam annotation in Table 5 indicates that the cluster 1 member proteins comprise the OrfB_IS605, OrfB_Zn_ribbon, and Puf domains.

Polynucleotide Sequences Encoding Transposases

For the transposase proteins SEQ ID NOs: 124-246, 275-287, the corresponding polynucleotide coding regions were also identified, see Table 7. A single protein sequence may be encoded by one or more different nucleotide sequences because the sequences were identified from different bacterial species or strains. For example, for protein SEQ ID NO: 127, the corresponding DNA sequences are SEQ ID NO: 4, 288, 289, 290, and 291.

CRISPR sequences associated with the transposes were identified, see Table 8. Each CRISPR sequence includes 50 nucleotides of genomic sequence extended from both the upstream 5′ end and the downstream 3′ end of the CRISPR region (except for SEQ ID NO: 816, which does not contain the extra 50 nucleotides at the 5′ end). For some transposases, multiple associated CRISPR sequences were identified, for example, the polynucleotide sequence (SEQ ID NO: 559 encoding protein sequence of SEQ ID NO: 201) is associated with two CRISPR sequences—SEQ ID NOs: 987 and 988. Additionally, a single CRISPR sequence may be associated with two or more transposase protein coding regions, for example, the polynucleotide sequences SEQ ID NO: 98 and SEQ ID NO: 16 are associated with the same CRISPR sequence of SEQ ID NO: 679. This is also observed for the polynucleotide pairs of SEQ ID NOs: 99 and 9 are both associated with CRISPR sequence SEQ ID NO: 647, SEQ ID NOs: 100 and 301 are both associated with CRISPR sequence SEQ ID NO: 647, SEQ ID NOs: 595 and 11 are both associated with CRISPR sequence SEQ ID NO: 653, SEQ ID NOs: 596 and 302 are both associated with CRISPR sequence SEQ ID NO: 651, and SEQ ID NOs: 597 and 303 are both associated with CRISPR sequence SEQ ID NO: 654.

CRIPSR Repeat and Spacer Coordinates within Each CRISPR Sequence

The repeat and spacer positions within each CRIPSR sequence were identified using bioinformatic analysis. For a representative CRISPR sequence selected for each transposase, The repeat and spacer sequences of the CRISPR regions were identified using the CRISPR recognition tool (Bland, 2007), then the sequences were manually examined to adjust the repeat and spacer sequences. The curated repeat and spacer sequence coordinates are provided in Table 9 for a representative CRISPR sequence selected for each transposase (SEQ ID NOs: 124-246, 275-287).

Prediction of PAM Motifs and Guide RNAs for the Transposases

The curated spacer sequences listed in Table 9 were used in blast searches against datasets of phage and viral genomic sequences. The viral genome dataset was downloaded from ENA (European Nucleotide Archive). The phage genome datasets were downloaded from ENA, NCBI (National Center for Biotechnology Information), and Actinobacteriophage (web page at phagesdb.org) databases. Hits that were 100% identical over 20 bp either from the 5′ start or from the 3′ end of the query spacer sequence were selected and aligned with the spacer sequence using clustalw. As an example, the spacer sequences associated with the cluster 1 proteins (spacer 1, SEQ ID NO: 2004; spacer 2, SEQ ID NO: 2005, spacer 3, SEQ ID NO: 2006) were searched and aligned with the phage sequence matches (KJ920400_1, SEQ ID NO: 2007; HE614281_1 SEQ ID NO: 2009; KJ024807_1, SEQ ID NO: 2010; NC 029008.1_1, SEQ ID NO: 2011), as shown in FIG. 2. This alignment suggested a PAM motif of nucleotide triplet 5′-TCA-3′ is present at the 5′ end of the spacer. Additionally, a PAM motif of nucleotide triplet 5′-TTA-3′ is likely an alternative 5′ PAM for cluster 1 proteins; a PAM motif of nucleotide triplet 5′-CCT-3′ is predicted to be a 5′ PAM for cluster 3 proteins, and the a PAM motif of nucleotide triplet 5′-CCA-3′, or 5′-CCT-3′, or 5′-ACA-3′ is predicted to be a 5′ PAM for cluster-11.

For at least one curated repeat sequence associated with each transposase, an analysis was done to predict secondary structure. All predicted structures showed a stem loop structure with differences in the length of the stem, with most of the repeats having a stem length ≥5 bp. As an example, FIG. 3 shows the predicted secondary structures for the first and second repeats (SEQ ID NOs: 2012 and 2013) associated with a transposase (PRT: SEQ ID NO: 136; DNA: SEQ ID NO: 304). The predicted secondary structure of the CRISPR repeat sequence illustrates that the repeat sequence is capable of forming a hairpin loop structure suggesting that the repeat sequence alone is sufficient to form an effective guide RNA.

The guide-RNA sequences for a transposase can be designed to comprise at least one of the associated repeat sequences (R) and at least one of the associated spacer sequences (S), including but not limited to the combinations and orientations such as R+S, antisense sequence of R+S, S+R, and antisense sequence of S+R. For example in Table 10, a pair of the repeat and spacer sequences is selected as a representative for each transposase and the potential guide-RNA sequences are constructed and listed. A guide-RNA sequence can also be generated based on the fragment of the repeat sequence and the spacer sequence. A guide-RNA sequence may be designed to comprise at least 20 nucleotides from a spacer sequence. One skilled in the art would be able to design various guide-RNAs using the CRISPR repeats and spacers identified for the transposases disclosed herein.

The cluster 1 members (104 unique proteins), including the CRISPR-associated transposase of SEQ ID NO: 136 (DNA: SEQ ID NO: 304), all have a central OrfB_IS605 (Insertion Element 605) and a C-terminal OrfB_Zn_ribbon domain. In addition, most members (102 unique proteins) also comprise Puf domains. The Insertion Element (IS) 605 or TnpB contains a split RuvC endonuclease domain and is considered a progenitor of Cpf1 and C2C1 proteins (Kapitonov, 2016). The RuvC domain provides the endonuclease activity of these enzymes. Proteins containing Zn-ribbon domains are thought to bind DNA. The CRISPR-associated transposases were analyzed for the presence of RuvC catalytic domains based on sequence alignment with split RuvC regions described in literature. Using the CRISPR-associated transposase of SEQ ID NO: 136 (DNA: SEQ ID NO: 304) as an example, a RuvC I and RuvC III regions with conserved catalytic “D” amino acids (position 233 and 408) and the RuvC II region with a conserved ‘E” amino acid (position 354) were identified, and these three conserved residues are indicated in FIG. 4.

Puf domains (Pumilio-family RNA binding repeat) have been reported in eukaryotic RNA binding proteins. They usually, but not always, occur in tandem repeats of 8 and bind to a sequence specific 8 bp RNA binding motif. Each Puf domain forms a helical hairpin with a short helix preceding it (Yin, 2013). Each domain binds to one of the 8 nucleotides in the consensus binding site—5′-UGUANAUA-3′ (Zhang and Muench, 2015). In addition to Pfam analysis, the protein structure prediction software, PSIPRED, was used to predict helical structures and identify additional Puf domains. For the CRISPR-associated transposase of SEQ ID NO: 136 (DNA: SEQ ID NO: 304), seven putative Puf domains were identified and their domain structures are outlined in FIG. 4, relative to the OrfB_IS605 and OrfB_Zn_ribbon domains, and the RuvC active sites. The domain annotations and sequences are further described for this CRISPR-associated transposase in FIG. 5 where each Puf domain sequence is underlined and the two Pfam domains—IS605 and Zn ribbon are enclosed by brackets [ ] and double brackets [[ ]], respectively.

Since Puf domains are known to bind the highly conserved consensus RNA sequence (5′-UGUANAUA-3′), the CRISPR repeats associated with the transposases (SEQ ID NOs: 124-246, 275-287) were searched for the presence of the consensus Puf binding motif. As depicted in FIG. 6 for the CRISPR-associated transposase of SEQ ID NO: 136 (DNA: SEQ ID NO: 304), the sequence alignment across the associated CRISPR repeats shows a highly conserved motif that is similar to Puf binding motifs. The observed consensus Puf motif in the CRISPR-associated transposase of SEQ ID NO: 136 (DNA: SEQ ID NO: 304) is also highly conserved across repeat sequences from other members in cluster 1. The identified protein domain structure and the putative Puf binding motif suggests that the CRISPR-associated transposase not SEQ ID NO: 136 (DNA: SEQ ID NO: 304) is a nuclease with RNA and DNA binding activity.

Example 3

A high through-put assay is conducted to determine if the identified CRISPR-associated transposases (a) have RNA-guided DNA nuclease activity, and (b) to identify the associated PAM motifs. This assay is generally applicable to RNA-Guided EndoNuclease (RGEN) proteins, which refer to DNA modifying enzyme that (1) includes endonucleolytic activity, and (2) are associated with a non-coding RNA species that is capable of guiding the RGENs to specific DNA target sites for enzymatic activity. Many of these enzymes may have, beyond endonuclease activity, other functions, which include, but are not limited to transposases, topoisomerases, recombinases, and resolvases.

A bacterial genomic region of interest (ROI) including a DNA sequence encoding a CRISPR-associated transposase represented by SEQ ID NOs: 124-246, 275-287 and the associated RNA species in its native genomic environment was cloned into a bacterial expression plasmid. Another LacZ reporter plasmid was also built for each RGEN system, which included one or more of the spacer sequences identified in the CRISPR array associated with the individual transposase. The spacer(s) sequence in each LacZ reporter plasmid was flanked at both ends by 12 nucleotides of randomized sequence. The LacZ reporter plasmids contain a low-copy replication origin and a selectable marker that is different from that of the plasmids encoding the CRISPR-associated transposases to allow selection for co-transformants.

The ROI expression plasmid and the LacZ reporter plasmid were co-transformed into E. coli. Upon expression of the ROI elements (CRISPR-associated transposase and associated guide-RNA), and when the variable region of the LacZ reporter plasmid includes a functional PAM 5′ or 3′ to the spacer for the CRISPR-associated transposase, the DNA nuclease activity will introduce double-strand breaks (DSBs) in the reporter plasmids, resulting in a reduction of the LacZ reporter plasmid copy number within the cells. Reduction of reporter plasmids is detected by phenotypic changes of the resulting bacterial colony. Specifically, in normal colonies without nuclease activity, the colonies are dark blue and large. In contrast, in colonies with activity of the CRISPR-associated transposase on the reporter plasmid, the colonies are small and light blue or white in color. This assay design is illustrated in FIG. 7. This assay identifies CRISPR-associated transposase systems where the initial endonuclease cleavage is not followed by subsequent re-ligation of the broken ends and thus the linearized reporter plasmids are eliminated by bacterial endogenous nucleases. For RNA-guided nucleases (RGENs) that have additional functions, such as transposase activity, additional mutations may be introduced before the reporter plasmid is re-ligated, and thus the selectable marker and reporter genes may not be affected. In these latter cases, high-throughout sequencing of the reporter plasmids recovered from the surviving colonies would reveal additional mutations.

Broken plasmid DNAs are eliminated by host-derived endogenous nucleases in E. coli, which facilitates the blue-white selection described above, and illustrated in FIG. 7A. However, another group of prokaryotes, namely Mycobacterium spp. carries a different DNA repair mechanism, called non-homologous end-joining, which would heal the cut plasmid in an error-prone fashion (FIG. 8). This mechanism could be utilized to identify efficacious CRISPR-associated transposase systems by detecting either integration of a short oligonucleotide or point mutations at the target site by PCR amplification and/or sequencing of recovered reporter plasmids of surviving Mycobacterium colonies which are co-transformed with the expression and reporter plasmids. This assay is used as an alternative of the blue-white selection assay.

Example 4

A eukaryotic cell is transformed with an expression vector comprising a heterologous promoter operably linked to a sequence encoding one of the CRISPR-associated transposases selected from SEQ ID NOs: 124-246, 275-287, and a sequence encoding a RNA guide comprising a sequence targeting an endogenous genomic sequence of the eukaryotic cell. The CRISPR-associated transposase complexed with the guide RNA cleaves the genomic DNA at the target site and indel mutations are created by improper repair. Mutations are detected by sequencing.

Example 5

A eukaryotic cell is transformed with an expression vector comprising a heterologous promoter operably linked to a sequence encoding a CRISPR-associated transposase selected from SEQ ID NOs: 124-246, 275-287, and a sequence encoding an RNA guide comprising a sequence targeting an endogenous sequence of the cell. A donor polynucleotide comprising an exogenous transgene or a sequence for templated editing is further provided to the cell. The CRISPR-associated transposase complexed with the guide RNA cleaves the genomic DNA at the target site and the donor polynucleotide is incorporated by non-homologous end-joining or homologous recombination. Integrations are detected by sequencing amplicons spanning the chromosome-oligo junctions (e.g., FIG. 10).

Example 6: In Vitro Cutting Assay

A sequence encoding one of the CRISPR-associated transposase proteins encoded by SEQ ID NOs: 124-246 and 275-287 is cloned into a bacterial expression plasmid, the expression plasmid is transformed into E. coli, the bacteria are harvested, a bacterial lysate is prepared, and the enzyme is purified from the bacterial lysate. The corresponding genomic region of interest (ROI) including CRISPR components associated with the transposase are cloned into a high-copy plasmid, which is transformed into E. coli, and RNA components associated with the transposase of interest encoded on the ROI construct are identified by RNA-seq of the bacterial lysate. These RNA components are synthesized, and the transposase protein and synthetic RNA components are combined in vitro, the resulting transposase/RNA complexes are added to synthetic DNA fragments carrying the spacer sequences as shown in FIG. 9. The DNA fragments are collected for sequencing to determine cutting.

Example 7: Determination and Validation of PAM Motif of a RNA-Guided DNA Nuclease

A bacterial genomic region of interest (ROI) including one of the DNA sequences encoding a CRISPR-associated transposase represented by SEQ ID NOs: 124-246 and 275-287, and the associated CRISPR RNA components associated with the transposase of interest in its native genomic environment is cloned into a first bacterial expression plasmid which comprises a first antibiotic resistance gene, such as kanamycin resistance (Kan). A second bacterial plasmid comprising a second antibiotic resistance gene, for example tetracycline or chloramphenicol, is constructed such that the plasmid contains a spacer flanked both 5′ and 3′ by 12 bp of randomly selected nucleotides (Ns). The two plasmids are transformed into E. coli and plated on two plates: (1) containing media with a single antibiotic for selection of the first plasmid; and (2) containing antibiotics for selection against both the first and second plasmid. Plasmid DNA is prepared from bacteria grown on both sets of plates, PCR amplification of the spacer with flanking N sequence is conducted, and the PCR amplions are deep sequenced to identify sequences which are depleted from the library. These sequences corresponding to the depleted sequence correspond to the PAM motif recognized by the respective CRISPR-associated transposase which was co-transformed.

Alternatively, the PAM preferences for a CRISPR-associated transposase can be empirically examined and determined by using a method relying on the in vitro cleavage of plasmid libraries containing a randomized PAM (3′ PAM or 5′ PAM library) as a function of Nuclease-guide RNA complex (Karvelis, 2015; Shmakov, 2015). Randomized PAM plasmid libraries are constructed using synthesized oligonucleotides (ssDNA) consisting of seven randomized nucleotides either upstream or downstream of a spacer target. The randomized ssDNA oligos are made double stranded (dsDNA) by annealing to a short primer and synthesizing the second strand in vitro, for example, by providing a Klenow enzyme to the in vitro synthesis reaction. The dsDNA product is assembled into a linearized pUC19 plasmid using any standard molecular biology cloning method. E. coli are transformed with the cloned products, several bacterial colonies are collected and pooled. Plasmid DNA is harvested using a QIAGEN® plasmid Maxi kit. The pooled library is co-transformed into E. coli with a CRISPR-associated transposase locus. After transformation, cells are plated and selected with antibiotic. After 16 hr of growth, >4×10⁶ cells are harvested and plasmid DNA is extracted using a QIAGEN® Maxi kit. The target PAM region is amplified and sequenced using an Illumina MiSeq® with single-end 150 cycles. Sequences corresponding to both PAMs and non-PAMs are cloned into pUC19 vectors. Competent E. coli with either the plasmid comprising the CRISPR-associated transposase locus or a pACYC184 control plasmid are transformed with PAM plasmid and plated on LB agar plates supplemented with ampicillin and chloramphenicol. After 18 hr, colonies were counted with OpenCFU (Geissmann, 2013).

Example 8: Validation of RNA-Guided DNA Nuclease Activity for CRISPR-Associated Transposases Using Blue-White Selection

A phenotypic assay is conducted to determine if CRISPR-associated transposases identified herein have RNA-guided DNA nuclease activity. The design of this assay is essentially as detailed in Example 3. A bacterial genomic region of interest (ROI) (SEQ ID NO: 2019) comprising the DNA sequence (SEQ ID NO: 304) encoding the CRISPR-associated transposase of SEQ ID NO: 136 and the associated CRISPR RNA species in its native genomic environment was cloned into a plasmid. Another ‘reporter’ plasmid comprising two of the spacer sequences (SEQ ID NOs: 2017 and 2018) identified in the CRISPR array (SEQ ID NO: 662) were also built. The spacer(s) were flanked by 12 variable nucleotides at both ends (depicted as ‘NNN’ in FIG. 11). The reporter construct had a low-copy replication origin (pAcyc 184) and a selectable marker (chloramphenicol resistance) that is different from that of the plasmids comprising the CRISPR-associated transposase (kanamycin resistance) to allow selection for co-transformants. The reporter plasmid also carried a LacZ cassette that provided blue-white selection. The ROI and reporter plasmids were co-transformed into E. coli. DNA nuclease activity of the CRISPR-associated transposase results in a double-strand break (DSBs) leading to linearized reporter plasmid. The linearized reporter plasmid is completely degraded in the E. coli, which was thought to be the only possible outcome of DNA repair. However, molecular evidence for existence of alternative DNA repair mechanisms that lead to re-circularization of linearized plasmids is accumulating. Not to be bound by a particular theory, these rearrangements may occur by recombination between short tracks of homologies as demonstrated by Wang (2015). Alternatively, short homologies between a linear plasmid and a circular one can also lead to recombination resulting in chimeric plasmids. Some of these new variants deriving from targeted cleavage of the reporter construct would eliminate the reporter gene (LacZ), while retaining the chloramphenicol resistance gene, which would produce rare chloramphenicol resistant white colonies in a ‘sea’ of blue colonies. Two negative controls were built as depicted in FIG. 11, where either the ROI (Control RGEN (−)) or the reporter region (Control Reporter (−)) were absent from their vector backbones. Co-transformation of the two plasmids resulted in 21 white colonies among 750 blue colonies, while no white colonies were found in either of the negative controls lacking either the ROI comprising the CRISPR-associated transposase or the reporter region as shown in Table 11. These results suggest that the CRISPR-associated transposase of SEQ ID NO: 136 either eliminated or mutated the reporter plasmids. For molecular analysis, plasmids were isolated from ten white colonies. A region of the reporter plasmid including the two spacers and their flanking variable regions was amplified (569 bp) in (1) the pool of reporter plasmids that did not go through transformation, (2) in plasmids isolated from two blue colonies that were apparently unaffected by the transposase, and (3) in the plasmids isolated from the ten white colonies. While strong bands of expected size were obtained from the negative controls (plasmid sources 1 and 2 listed above), only faint bands were detected in nine of ten white colonies. This suggested targeted degradation of the reporter plasmids in white colonies. The amplicon from one of ten white colonies—colony #6 was comparable to the control in intensity, which suggested that the corresponding plasmid was repaired by an alternative mechanism that preserved the reporter region. Sequencing of the amplicons revealed no mutations in the negative controls. Sequencing was also attempted in all ten white colonies, but was successful only in colony #6, which retained a significant amount of the reporter plasmid. Point mutations were identified in both spacers of this plasmid in colony #6, which may have originated from imperfect DNA repair. No such mutations were found in either the reporter plasmid pools when sequenced prior to transformation, or in randomly selected blue colonies, which went through transformation, but were apparently unaffected by the transposase possibly due to incompatibility in the variable PAM region.

Example 9: Validation of RNA-Guided Endonuclease Activity Using a 2-Plasmid or 3-Plasmid Selection System

A bacterial selection system was previously developed to study properties of homing endonucleases by linking DNA cleavage events with cell survival (Chen and Zhao, 2005). The 2-plasmid system of Chen and Zhao consists of a ‘reporter plasmid’ (p11-LacY-wtx1), and an inducible protein expression vector (pTrc-I-SceI). This system has been used to increase the in vivo cutting efficiency and specificity of a FokI nuclease domain (Guo, 2010). It has also been used to alter the PAM specificity of Cas9, an RNA-guided endonuclease (Kleinstiver, 2015). The assay may be modified into a highly sensitive selection system that couples RNA-guided endonuclease DNA cleavage with the survival of host cells. Three plasmids-pNuc-I-SceI, pCut-I-SceI, and pGuide are built to enable either a 2-plasmid (pNuc and pCut) selection system, or a more flexible 3-plasmid selection system. The protein expression vector, pNuc-I-SceI, uses a strong P-tac promoter. Another improvement is incorporation of the lad gene (lac repressor) in the pNuc-I-SceI backbone, such that the plasmid can work well in non-lacI^(q) hosts. pNuc-I-SceI is derived from the pACYC-Duet1 plasmid (Novagen), and has the P15a-ori and Chloramphenicol (Cm) resistance gene. pNuc appeared to express the I-SceI meganuclease at a low, non-toxic level in E. coli, in quantities sufficient to cut plasmids with an I-SceI restriction site. pNuc-I-SceI has unique NdeI and NotI sites that allow the easy replacement of the I-SceI coding region with other genes or operons. Cutting the plasmid with BamHI and NotI allows for cloning 1-9 kb genomic regions containing multiple ORFs, CRISPR loci or other sequences, where protein expression from ORFs will be originating from the native promoters, etc.

The reporter plasmid, pCut-I-SceI contains the highly toxic ccdB gene behind a well-regulated P-ara expression unit that expresses ccdB levels at such low levels in its uninduced state that cells containing pCut are healthy. The pCut-I-SceI contains a cassette conferring carbenicillin resistance. Addition of 0.2% arabinose to the growth medium, induces the expression of ccdB to levels that cause a 3-4 log-kill of cells bearing the plasmid. pCut-I-SceI also contains a ‘cut site’ immediately downstream of the ccdB gene. In pCut-I-SceI, the ‘cut site’ is a ˜50 bp sequence containing the 18 bp recognition sequence of the I-SceI meganuclease. The region flanking the cut site contains unique restriction sites that allow the sequence to be replaced by other desired sequences, such as a cut site library of sequences, containing degenerate nucleotides (i.e. N=A or C or G or T). Expression of an endonuclease that cuts pCut in its ‘cut site’ relieves the sensitivity to growth on arabinose is due to the rapid in vivo degradation of pCut and the loss of the arabinose-inducible ccdB gene. The system can be fine tuned for selecting recognition sequence variants of endonucleases, ‘kinetic variants’ (Guo, 2010), or studying the in vivo temperature optimum for DNA cleavage.

When competent BW25141 E. coli containing pCut-I-SceI are made and transformed with pNuc-I-SceI, and side-by-side with (empty) pACYC-Duet1, and allowed to recover for approx. 2.5 hrs, without antibiotics, with or without the addition of IPTG (to further induce I-SceI expression from the P-tac promoter), aliquots of the cells can be plated on LB+ 25 ug/ml Chloramphenicol (Cm) agar plates (to determine transformation efficiency of the pNuc construct), alongside LB+25 ug/ml Cm+0.2% arabinose plates. Depending on dilutions and competency of the E. coli, E. coli transformed with (empty) pACYC-Duet1 yield 0-1 colony-forming units (cfus) on LB+25 ug/ml Cm+0.2% arabinose plates as compared to >1000 cfus on LB+25 ug/ml Cm plates. In contrast, E. coli transformed with pNuc-I-SceI yield 30 to >100 cfu's on LB+Cm+arabinose plates as compared to >500 cfu's on LB+Cm plates. Plasmids similar to pNuc have been used by others to co-express RNA-guided endonucleases along with their guide RNA(s) or a CRISPR locus (Zetsche, 2015). A modification of this system that uses a separate third plasmid, pGuide, to co-express guide RNA increases the flexibility of the selection system. The pCDF-Duet1 backbone (Novagen) containing the CDF-ori and Spectinomycin-r genes is chosen and a synthetic DNA J23119 (a synthetic constitutive E. coli promoter used by Zetsche 2015.) is inserted in the ˜2.2 kB pCDF backbone to create the pGuide plasmid. The guide RNA associated with a CRISPR-associated transposase of interest, for example the CRISPR-associated transposase of SEQ ID NO: 136 (DNA: SEQ ID NO: 304), is inserted in the pCDF backbone to create the pGuide-transposase plasmid.

The 2-plasmid and 3-plasmid systems are used to determine RNA-guided nuclease activities for the CRISPR-associated transposase proteins selected from SEQ ID NOs: 124-246 and 275-287. Using the CRISPR-associated transposase of SEQ ID NO: 136 as an example, the transposase coding region (SEQ ID NO: 304) is cloned into the pNuc-I-SceI plasmid replacing the I-SceI component to create the pNuc-RGEN PRT: SEQ ID NO: 136 (DNA: SEQ ID NO: 304) plasmid. A, RGEN PRT: SEQ ID NO: 136 (DNA: SEQ ID NO: 304) ‘cut site’ (two spacers SEQ ID NOs: 2017 and 2018 flanked by 8 variable nucleotides at both ends) is cloned into the pCut-I-SceI plasmid replacing the I-SceI cut site to create the pCut-RGEN PRT: SEQ ID NO: 136 (DNA: SEQ ID NO: 304) plasmid. A pCut-control plasmid is generated by incorporating a non-RGEN PRT: SEQ ID NO: 136 (DNA: SEQ ID NO: 304) ‘cut site’ (e.g. Cas9 cut site) into the pCut-I-SceI plasmid.

The pNuc-RGEN PRT: SEQ ID NO: 136 (DNA: SEQ ID NO: 304) plasmids are tested with the pCut-RGEN PRT: SEQ ID NO: 136 (DNA: SEQ ID NO: 304) plasmid in the above described 2-plasmid assay to determine the minimal genomic fragment required for the RNA-guided nuclease activity. The pNUC-RGEN PRT: SEQ ID NO: 136 (DNA: SEQ ID NO: 304) plasmids can be further tested with the pCut-RGEN PRT: SEQ ID NO: 136 (DNA: SEQ ID NO: 304) plasmid and the pGuide plasmid to determine if the associated CRISPR locus is required for the nuclease activity of the CRISPR-associated transposase. The pCut-control plasmid is used to demonstrate specificity of the CRISPR-associated transposase mediated cleavage.

Example 10: Fragment Length Assay

This example describes an in vitro assay for high-throughput detection of targeted endonuclease activities for CRISPR-associated transposase proteins selected from SEQ ID NOs: 124-246 and 275-287. E. coli cells carrying expression vectors for CRISPR-associated transposases with or without guide RNAs (or an entire CRISPR locus) are lysed to prepare whole cell lysates, essentially as described in Example 6. Fluorescent end-labeled PCR amplicons carrying the predicted target site of the CRISPR-associated transposase are added to the lysates, and after incubation, the CRISPR-associated transposase present in the lysates cleaves the fluorescent end-labeled PCR amplicons. The fluorescent fragments can be detected and sized by high-throughput DNA length analysis (for example, on an ABI3700 instrument, Life technologies) to determine the extent of DNA cutting and the position of the cut site in the DNA fragments.

Example 11: RNA Binding Assay

This example describes the assay for assessing whether a transposase protein selected from SEQ ID NOs: 124-246 and 275-287 associates with a guide RNA sequence derived from its associated CRISPR array. The technology employed in this assay is the Alpha Screen (Perkin Elmer). This assay system uses a donor and acceptor bead that when brought into close proximity emits a detectable fluorescent signal. In this assay, several guide RNAs are made using in vitro transcription. These guide RNA sequences are linked to the flank sequences (Flank1: SEQ ID NO: 3380; Flank2: SEQ ID NO: 3381) via a linker sequence (SEQ ID NO: 3382) (FIG. 10). The nucleotide sequence (Flank2) binds to an oligo with an Alpha Streptavidin donor bead attached. An CRISPR-associated transposase is expressed in E. coli with a His-tag which serves as the binding site for the Alpha acceptor bead. As an example illustrated in FIG. 12, when a CRISPR-associated transposase of SEQ ID NO: 136 (with acceptor bead) binds to its predicted guide RNA (with donor bead) a detectable fluorescent signal is produced. For this experiment a CRISPR-associated transposase of SEQ ID NO: 136 (DNA: SEQ ID NO: 304) is expressed in an IPTG-inducible E coli strain and the lysate is applied to the assay to look for signal. To first validate this assay a purified His-Cas9 is mixed with its gRNA (SEQ ID NO: 3383). If the assay functions under these conditions then it is further tested with a bacterial lysate containing expressed His-Cas9 to more closely mimic the conditions of the RGEN CRISPR-associated transposase experiment. If a detectable signal is measured from the Cas9 lysate then the assay is applied to a CRISPR-associated transposase lysate against its corresponding guide RNA. A number of putative guide RNA sequences (SEQ ID NOs: 3384-3402) are designed to be tested in the binding assay for the CRISPR-associated transposase of SEQ ID NO: 136, using the CRISPR repeats and spacers disclosed in Table 8 for SEQ ID NO: 136. Among these guide RNAs, two sequences (SEQ ID NOs: 3401 and 3402) are designed to be negative controls by introducing mutations into the native CRISPR repeat and spacer sequences comprised in these two guide RNAs.

Example 12: Use of CRISPR-Associated Transposases for Genome Editing in Plants

The CRISPR-associated transposases represented by SEQ ID NOs: 124-246 and 275-287 are tested for site-specific cleavage of genomic DNA in plants. To demonstrate this activity, vectors are created to express the transposase proteins and the associated guide RNAs. For example, vectors are created to express the CRISPR-associated transposase protein of SEQ ID NO: 136 and its associated guide-RNA. Codon-optimized open reading frames of the CRISPR-associated transposases represented by SEQ ID NOs: 124-246 and 275-287 for corn and soy are listed in Table 12. A promoter, such as maize Ubiquitin2 promoter, is used to drive the expression of CRISPR-associated transposases in plants. A nuclear localization signal (e.g. monopartite SV40) is added to the N terminus of a CRISPR-associated transposase and a bipartite nucleoplasmin nuclear localization signal (BiNLS) is included at the C terminus to facilitate nuclear localization. To validate the effectiveness of nuclear localization signal used, maize protoplasts are transformed with an transposase-GFP fusion protein construct and nuclear localized fluorescence is observed. A maize U6 snRNA promoter can be used for the generation of sgRNA in maize (WO2015131101 incorporated by reference herein; Zhu, 2016). The PAM sequences are identified for the CRISPR-associated transposases as described in Example 7, and the protospacer sequences recognized by CRISPR-associated transposases can be used to identify sgRNA-specific target sites within the maize genome with minimal off-target cuts, using the approach described by Zhu (2016). Target sites located in the first two exons are good candidates for the purpose of targeted gene disruption in maize, since mutations occurred at the beginning of the coding sequence are more likely to disrupt the function of the proteins.

To test the activity of CRISPR-associated transposases for maize endogenous gene editing, a protoplast transient assay is conducted to detect the function of the engineered CRISPR-transposase system. To increase the transformation efficiency, binary plasmids with both sgRNA and transposase expression cassettes are generated and then transformed into maize protoplasts. Genomic DNA is extracted from transformed protoplasts cultured for 24 h and amplicons encompassing target sites are prepared for sequencing (for example, Illumina deep sequencing) and targeted genome edits can be observed.

To test the mutation efficiency of CRISPR-associated transposases in stable expression lines, a target site verified in the maize transient assay is chosen. Construct(s) with sgRNA and the selected target site, and the transposase is then transformed into maize immature embryos via Agrobacterium tumefaciens. T₀ transgenic lines are analyzed and the transposase positive lines are identified based on immunoblot analysis. SURVEYOR assays can be used to determine whether edits are introduced in the target site (Zhu, 2016). For detailed analysis of editing efficiency and mutation type introduced by CRISPR-associated transposases, the PCR amplicons encompassing the target site can be deep-sequenced for the transposase positive T₀ generation plants. The experimental designs and assays as described above in this example can also be adapted to program and test the CRISPR-associated transposases for genome editing in soy, wheat, canola, cotton, tomato, or other plants and vegetables.
